Spring fashion 2025: Our round up of new season trends at Manchester Arndale 

Sunshine? In Manchester? We know – groundbreaking. March is finally here and with it comes the promise of brighter days, (slightly) warmer temps and – most importantly – a wardrobe refresh. Yes, it’s time to talk spring fashion!

The days of bundling up in oversized coats and hiding under umbrellas are (hopefully) behind us and in their place? New season trends that are fresh, fun and ready to take your wardrobe to the next level.

So, what’s hot right now? We’ve rounded up everything you need to refresh your spring style wardrobe – Manchester Arndale style. Let’s dive in.

New collection in store at French Connection

French Connection – Spring’s Hottest Event 

Fashion, free drinks and a DJ? Say less. On Saturday 15th March, French Connection is throwing an in-store launch party and you’re invited. From 12–5pm, sip, shop and get first dibs on their SS25 collection – aka, the easiest way to nail what to wear in spring.

The star of the show? Co-ords. French Connection has cracked the code on effortless dressing, serving up sets that work just as well apart as they do together. Whether you’re into minimal chic or bold prints, these pieces are about to become your new wardrobe staples.

Dune London – Spring Shoes, Sorted 

PSA: It’s officially time to ditch the winter boots (thank goodness). Enter: Dune London’s SS25 collection. Expect luxurious loafers, sports-luxe trainers and the perfect work-to-weekend bags – all designed with versatility (and serious style) in mind. 

We’re talking heritage prints, all the neutrals and the kind of shoes that make any outfit look instantly put together. And because Dune knows how to sweeten the deal, they’re giving out chocolate hearts with every purchase from Monday 24th – Sunday 30th March. Fashion AND chocolate? Yes, please.

River Island – Animal Print 2.0 

Leopard print? A classic. But for spring 2025, its cool cousins – zebra and cow print – are stepping into the spotlight. Their monochrome palette makes them super easy to style, so whether you’re easing in with a statement bag or going full-on co-ord chic, River Island has a huge selection of prints in a range of different products.

Not sure how to style it? Think of these prints as the neutral you never knew you needed – just as fierce as leopard but a little more understated. If you’re feeling bold, mix and match prints for an instant trend-forward look.

Nike – Sporty, Stylish & Seriously Wearable 

Let’s be real – your favourite tracksuit has probably seen more brunch dates than gym sessions (no shame, we’re all in the same boat). But lucky for us, athleisure is still THE look and Nike’s latest collection makes spring style both comfy and cool. 

From technical jackets perfect for Manchester’s… unpredictable weather… to moisture-wicking fabrics that keep you feeling fresh, their new range is basically designed for looking effortlessly put together with minimal effort. Because let’s face it -that’s the ultimate fashion goal.

Spring wardrobe? Sorted. Now, all that’s left to do is hit the shops, embrace the new season trends and pray for a little more sunshine (0r at least, fewer rain showers).
