Carrying over from winter, florals are a huge trend again for spring/summer 2017. However, atypically for the season, this time around they come in a wider array than your common or garden pastels. Proffered in every shade from putty to black, and regardless of whether you are looking for feminine petals or hard-edged city flora, there is something here for everyone.
