The weather may have been wet, wet, wet recently but don't let that put you off summer's standout aquatic trend.
From shimmering fish scale prints to aquamarine colours, this season belongs to the underwater world. Think starfish, coral, seashells and vibrant fish aplenty.
The spring/summer catwalks were full of sea-inspired prints, ranging from exotic fish at Mary Katrantzou, shells and coral at Holly Fulton and iridescent mother-of-pearl shimmer at Chanel.
Our scaly friends may not seem like the most obvious fashion inspiration but don't be afraid to take the plunge…
Channel your best mermaid impression and go fishing for inspiration on the high street.
