We pick out the top 5 trends for summer straight from the runways. It&#39;s time to experiment and play dress up: You&rsquo;ve got the time.

NETS

Granted, it&rsquo;s an unusual trend, but there&rsquo;s certain practicality that comes with the drama. With social engagements looking precarious, the demand for a versatile wardrobe is higher than ever. The new fishnet trend is all about layering: Especially pieces that nestle easily&nbsp;above bodysuits, inner tops and slips dress.

Bottega Veneta&rsquo;s lust-worthy cotton <a href="https://www.24s.com/en-sg/sleveless-dress-bottega-veneta_BOT4526JGEEWZZZS00?color=olive">knitted dress</a> trimmed with ruffle details comes dotted with a hint of retro beading, whilst Rick Owens&rsquo;s cashmere <a href="https://www.24s.com/en-sg/net-tank-top-rick-owens_OWE8CKZGGRYWZZZS00?color=black">net tank top</a> comes with an open weave fitted at the waist.

SEQUINS

Usually reserved for the end of year holidays, no one expects&nbsp;sequins to show up 6 months early &mdash; but we&#39;re saying &#39;yes&#39;, and the runways are in agreement. For a different look, try dressing them down:&nbsp;Pair your sequins with sneakers, a baseball cap or flats. Key pieces to look out for include this feminine&nbsp;<a href="https://www.24s.com/en-sg/linen-skirt-bottega-veneta_BOT52544GOLWI04000?color=crystal-gold">linen skirt</a>&nbsp;from Bottega Veneta,&nbsp;whose&nbsp;flared shape combines elegance and nonchalance.
