Make your chosen cover-up a statement piece from one of the new season’s key trends, and you’ll ensure that whatever’s going on underneath, you’ll always look perfectly polished (you know, until you take it off).

We’ve rounded up the best that the British high street and catwalk collections have to offer, but before you shop our edit, allow us to walk you through the trends.

Bombers are back.

…With a bang. Forget the pretty floral prints and subtle leather bombers of a couple of years ago, SS16’s bombers feature bold embellished prints, contrasting colours and statement satin finishes. They don’t call it a trophy jacket for nothing. Saint Laurent are leading the charge with tropical prints and satin sleeves, while Zara and Marks & Spencer have corned the high street with penny-pinching alternatives.

In the trenches.

Spring’s favourite cover-up, the classic trench is a sage investment for SS16. Opt for a classic cotton or shower-proof shell, or take it up a notch with one of this season’s luxe suede options.

Denim. Duh.

Since SS16’s biggest trends revolve around denim, why should outerwear be any different? Whether it’s a trench made modern in blue denim or an embellished patch-work jacket, there’s a style for everyone in the new season offerings.

P is for Parka.

Thanks to the great British weather, every girl needs a decent parka in her fashion arsenal. This season opt for a cropped, loose-fit shape to ensure you’re on-trend.
