Need to know: Turkish-born, Central Saint Martins graduate Dilara Findikoglu was the driving force behind the fashion school’s #encoreCSM show for graduates who weren’t selected for the university’s press presentation. We’re lucky she opted to go her own way because Findikoglu’s kitschy take on punk rock and tailoring is not to be missed. Though she just graduated in 2016, her collection has already been worn by Lady Gaga and Rihanna.

Much of the hubbub in the fashion world of 2016 was around established houses like Balenciaga, Gucci, Dior, Saint Laurent, and Valentino and their ever-revolving door of designers, but the year’s young guns are not to be glossed over. From the dynamic ready-to-wear of Dilara Findikoglu to the streamlined, luxurious-at-a-price dresses of Maggie Marilyn, this year’s crop of fresh talent brought a slew of new ideas to the table. Here, Vogue Runway highlights the 16 of ’16 to remember in to ’17.
