Poll: Matchy Matchy Fashion Rules SS14. But Do You Think Its More Granny Bang Than Alexander Wang?

Well now, Granny will be clapping her knitting needles with joy when she hears that one of the hottest trends for SS14 is matchy-matchy dressing.

Yes, the cotton bud-headed ladies are bang on trend this year, with all the major labels like Alberta Ferretti, Ralph Lauren, Erdem and Giles, all showcasing matching layers on the runway. But this is not about matching your shoes to your bag. Oh no, it's about all the elements of an outfit sharing the same motif (floral and embroidery were very popular in the couture collections) or a striking colour pattern.

If that seems like too big a fashion commitment, you could follow Burberry's lead and rock a matching scarf/coat combo. Or when the weather hots up, Termperley showed us how to twin dresses with flowing scarves.

So are you lovin' the matchy matchy pieces or do you feel suffocated by the symmetry? Tell us in the comments!
