Fashion designers across the globe are showcasing their summer 2017 styles with bright and bold designs the order of the season.

From candy pink to mellow yellow in sheer fabrics or floral prints, the sunshine months will be all about redefining a fresh and confident feel for women.

The kingdom’s ladies are already starting to dress up in the hottest trends featuring sheer and ruffled fabrics, retro-graphic printed T-shirts, metallic effects and strappy maxis.

Last summer, the off-the-shoulder looks ruled the scene. However, this year it’s the one-shoulder that’s getting all the appeal, as well as cropped coordinated sets of matching tops and bottoms, plus billowy dresses.

A selection of these cool styles can be snapped up from Vogue Concept boutique which recently unveiled its latest collections alongside offerings from Joseph, Brave Soul and Finders.

The store, located in Al Aali Shopping Complex in Seef, invited customers, members of the media and bloggers to enjoy a day of shopping, giving them a chance to browse through the clothing and accessories.

The Finders brand, also known as Finders Keepers, is one of the most sought-after Australian fashion labels. It is known for its effortless looks, fabulous fabrics and attainable high-street designs.

The label has caught the attention of multiple celebrities and style icons such as Jessica Alba, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian, Jennifer Hawkins, Iggy Azalea, Jessie J, Whitney Port and Demi Lovato.

The earth-toned Cyrus and Marcel printed white dresses symbolise summer with light and airy fabrics and designs.

Eliatt is another Australian label that is a favourite in Bahrain and it is also known for its bold colours and shapes. This label is for women who live on the edge when it comes to fashion and style. For example, the one-shoulder tangerine Emulate dress can be worn with kitten heels for a cocktail party or dressed down with white sneakers for a picnic in the park.

Other brands on offer this summer include The Fifth Label, Wildfox, Keepsake, Stevie May, Colourful Rebel and Luisa Cerano.
