Shiny happy trousers
These holographic pants may not be for the faint of heart, but they're a surefire way to spruce up your cold-weather wardrobe – just swap them with your trusty black jeans for an instant 3018 update. Pair with a standout animal-print knit for a look that boldly goes where no outfit has gone before.
Klingon meets neon
One trend you’ve probably seen all over your Instagram feed recently is neon – thanks largely to Prada’s illuminous AW18 collection. We’re getting Judy Jetson vibes from this glowing pink look, and it’s a cool futuristic alternative to a sequin dress for all your holiday parties.

Matrix updated

Add a pair of on-trend hiker boots, some sparkly earrings and a top knot, and boom, you’re ready for a dystopian adventure.
