We’re only a month into 2017 but the trends set to define the new year are already making our ‘saved items’ wish lists.

Pay day may have been a long time coming but as soon as the highly anticipated day arrives, we’ll be hitting up the high street in search of this season’s most sought after items. And what's on our fashion agenda you may ask?

The highly coveted hue of the year is already high up on our list alongside a faux fur coat and January's essential novelty pick-me-up.

But make sure to leave room for a new contender in the sartorial stakes, as we’ve got word of a cult item set to make the big time. The open-back jumper.

It seems like forever ago when the famous backless body from H&M heralded the attention of super bloggers across the globe. Our Instagram feed was a continuous stream of the must-have item, as it was debuted on the streets during fashion month and coveted by influencers far and wide.
