trendz of the Oh Nines

THE international collections came to an end last night after more than five weeks of back-to-back shows in New York, London, Milan and Paris. As the fashion pack make their way home to unload their wardrobes to the drycleaners, reconcile with neglected men and children, and generally get back into the swing of normal life, we have assessed the hundreds of looks from each city to bring you the strongest trends for next season.

First up, the failsafe options:

• Buy a hat (or a head scarf or a hair accessory of some description - the ponytail tubes at Louis Vuitton are a good option);
• Buy a really, really fabulous pair of heels (you need asking twice?);
• Buy at least one single-shouldered dress (one for evening and one for summer daytime flirting would be best);
• Buy something gold;
• Plan plenty of monochrome outfits;
• Put all your blues together, and all your greens, and practice wearing them layered up, all at once;
• If you're keen to invest in one of the bags of the season, go for a long strapped one slung across your body or clutch a teeny weeny one in your palm (as at Chanel and Louis Vuitton), or, for the real deal (and bank) breaker, check out the scrunchy, hand-held ones at Prada, Miu Miu and Louis Vuitton;
• Plus, if you're feeling brave and you really want to look the spring/summer 2009 part, be the first to master Stefano Pilati's Yves Saint Laurent baggy nappy pants. We dare you.

All too specific? If you want to be on trend but less obvious about it, we've put together this A to Z of the season. If we saw something twice or more, we called it a trend and recorded its sources here - this is the list to learn if you're going to drop the right fashion names next season:
