Innocent, feminine, yet decisively alluring. It's all in the detail when it comes to white; as eyelet and scalloped lace, broderie and embroidery graced the catwalk for Spring 2006/07.

So which white romantic pieces should you choose, and how do you complete the look? Here are our top five ways to wear white this season.

1. Blue denim. White has always looked sexy with denim, and 2007 will be no exception. Wear with casual denim or more tailored styles for a look that's effortless.



2. Tuxedo style. Contrast lacy feminine shirts with black drainpipe pants and sexy heels for a new take on tuxedo style dressing.



3. 70s reborn. Floaty dresses with ruffled hems and bell-sleelves make their mark. Team with leather accessories in tans and browns - woodstack heeled boots or platforms are a requirement; and tousled, wavy tresses complete the look perfectly. Keep it crisper and cleaner than last year's boho.



4. Roman influence. Gladiator style sandals are a hot choice for summer; opt for browns, black or subtle metallic tones.



5. Silver lining. Metallics add a dreamy touch to white; subtle silvers are angelic, while gold adds a goddess touch. Perfect for taking a pretty white dress into the evening.
