Good old Next has gone all fashion forward on us for spring, as Emma Johnson discovers

IF THE high street favourite’s latest collection is anything to go by, good old Next is having a serious fashion moment right now.

These pieces are all from the so-hip-it-hurts Vegas range – a range which shimmers with metallics and is awash with studs and fringing.

Featuring plenty of this season’s must-have fabric – good old denim, in stonewash, white and dove grey, pieces are embellished with sequins and tassels for a modern take on western glamour.

But don’t think for a minute this is a purely casual collection, it also features showstopping dresses like the python print tunic, left, which looks destined to be a best seller and enough statement jewellery and platform heels to create a killer look for evening.

We particularly like the leather jacket, right, in this season’s hottest colour grey while the fringed waistcoat is sure to be a best seller.

Team it with skinny stonewashed jeans and a plain white vest, then pile on the bangles for a fashion forward look.

Next describe this collection as on-trend, directional and guaranteed to make a bold, stylish statement.

And looking at these photographs, who are we to argue?
