Think moody florals, glamorous sportswear and checks...

<p>This week is London Fashion Week, and fashionistas far and wide have taken to the street style capital of the world to showcase their highly-anticipated designs. And it's been anything but understated. </p><p>Here are our favourite trends from LFW and how to get the look with <a href="https://global.george.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-ASDA-Site/default/Default-Start?Category=10" target="_blank">George</a>.</p><h2>1. Flower Power</h2><p>We know the floral print was everywhere last year; on dresses, tops and even shoes. So what&rsquo;s the update? It&rsquo;s all about dark miniature floral prints this season. Think small romantic, brooding floral prints rather then large, light and bouncy flowers as seen on this <a href="https://direct.asda.com/george/women/skirts-shorts/embroidered-a-line-denim-skirt/GEM584368,default,pd.html?dual=0&placement_id=GRGTOP&config_id=GRGTOP&strategy=PWBAB&product_id=GEM584368&parent_item_id=GEM587609" target="_blank">embroidered skirt</a>. Not sure what the difference is? Simone Rocha will give us a hint.</p><p><center><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-version="7" style=" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><div style="padding:8px;"> <div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50.0% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAABGdBTUEAALGPC/xhBQAAAAFzUkdCAK7OHOkAAAAMUExURczMzPf399fX1+bm5mzY9AMAAADiSURBVDjLvZXbEsMgCES5/P8/t9FuRVCRmU73JWlzosgSIIZURCjo/ad+EQJJB4Hv8BFt+IDpQoCx1wjOSBFhh2XssxEIYn3ulI/6MNReE07UIWJEv8UEOWDS88LY97kqyTliJKKtuYBbruAyVh5wOHiXmpi5we58Ek028czwyuQdLKPG1Bkb4NnM+VeAnfHqn1k4+GPT6uGQcvu2h2OVuIf/gWUFyy8OWEpdyZSa3aVCqpVoVvzZZ2VTnn2wU8qzVjDDetO90GSy9mVLqtgYSy231MxrY6I2gGqjrTY0L8fxCxfCBbhWrsYYAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"></div></div> <p style=" margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;"> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BZJRgw3lqmJ/" style=" color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;" target="_blank">Simone Rocha SS18 Look 22 #simonerocha</a></p> <p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;">A post shared by SIMONE ROCHA (@simonerocha_) on <time style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;" datetime="2017-09-17T14:07:17+00:00">Sep 17, 2017 at 7:07am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote> <script async defer src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script></center></p><p>Toughen up the look with biker boots or trainers to wear with your <a href="https://direct.asda.com/george/women/skirts-shorts/embroidered-a-line-denim-skirt/GEM584368,default,pd.html?dual=0&placement_id=GRGTOP&config_id=GRGTOP&strategy=PWBAB&product_id=GEM584368&parent_item_id=GEM587609" target="_blank">George skirt</a> for a cool-girl-twist on the trend.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img alt="skirtt" class="ci-image ci-original" src="https://ui3.assets-asda.com/dm/skirtt_GL?scl=1" style="height: 428px; width: 500px;"></p><h2>2.

Sporty Spice</h2><p>If you didn't know already, sportswear is no longer confined to the gym. Nowadays it's trendy to be seen in your oversized hoodie, sporty trousers and white trainers paired with everything. The trend is called sportsluxe and we want in. So ramp it up and layer it with a biker, coat or shearling aviator jacket. Peter Pilotto&rsquo;s got the right idea and opted for a pastel two-piece set.</p><p><center><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-version="7" style=" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><div style="padding:8px;"> <div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50.0% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"> <div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAABGdBTUEAALGPC/xhBQAAAAFzUkdCAK7OHOkAAAAMUExURczMzPf399fX1+bm5mzY9AMAAADiSURBVDjLvZXbEsMgCES5/P8/t9FuRVCRmU73JWlzosgSIIZURCjo/ad+EQJJB4Hv8BFt+IDpQoCx1wjOSBFhh2XssxEIYn3ulI/6MNReE07UIWJEv8UEOWDS88LY97kqyTliJKKtuYBbruAyVh5wOHiXmpi5we58Ek028czwyuQdLKPG1Bkb4NnM+VeAnfHqn1k4+GPT6uGQcvu2h2OVuIf/gWUFyy8OWEpdyZSa3aVCqpVoVvzZZ2VTnn2wU8qzVjDDetO90GSy9mVLqtgYSy231MxrY6I2gGqjrTY0L8fxCxfCBbhWrsYYAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"></div></div><p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BZMTLj7Fkxg/" style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none;" target="_blank">A post shared by Jenn Foley (@gryffindor4life)</a> on <time style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;" datetime="2017-09-18T18:19:35+00:00">Sep 18, 2017 at 11:19am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote> <script async defer src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script></center></p><p>We&rsquo;re happy to rewind the clocks to the 90s and unleash our inner Sporty Spice again with this <a href="https://global.george.com/george/women/jumpers-cardigans/sweatshirt-hoodie-dress/GEM584829,default,pd.html" target="_blank">sweatshirt hoodie dress</a>.
