| Louis Vuitton for Spring 2013 |
Maybe spring seems far away, but in fashion
world it’s not like that. Prominent fashion designers have already shown
their spring collection on fashion weeks around the globe. Every
designer has their own vision, but I tried to extract the main trend,
which you have to conquer until spring!
1. Elegant shorts
 |
| Chloe |
They were shown at Chole, DKNY, Rache Zoe… What else than a big
„YES“? Spring and summer are warm seasons, when we have to expose skin
and show beautiful legs. Elegant shorts are smart exchange for a skirt
and they are not only reserved for teens and models, but also for real
women.
2. Exaggerated volumes
 |
| Jil Sander |
In the next year the volumes will be even more modern! Loose cuts and
avantgarde tailoring will skillfully hide lacks at ours bodies, which
would be in tight piece of clothes easily exposed. Excessive volume are
also appreciated as reminders of the sophisticated tailoring which can
play with proportions. Besides, these silhouette are reminiscence of the
60s and 70s, but with a very modern and sophisticated touch. Our role
models: Jil Sander, Marni, and Chanel.
3. Japanese kimono
 |
| Emilio Pucci |
A kimono can be all kinds: as a kimono dress or a kimono shirt or as a
costume. Prada is presenting a kimono in oversized variety with
japanese flowers pattern, Etro refined it as a suit with smaller vivid
flowers and Emilio Pucci imagined a kimono mixed with a military style
with a trimmed golden dragon.
4. 60’s
 |
| Louis Vuitton |
Already this year the sixties were a big inspiration for designers
and they kept the trend for the next sping season. Obviously that was a
golden era of the mankind and creativity, after which we still have
nostalgic hiccups. Kate Spade brought them back as a sweet blouse and
under a tiny bit widened bell-shaped skirt and Louis Vuitton with cubic
graphics in poisons colors. Or you like more Moschino’s dress with big
graphical accentuations? Inspirations and varieties is many!
5. Over-sized frills
 |
| Gucci |
The key thing at this look is that you choose tight silhouette with
added over-sized frills, which break monotonous image and attract
attention to certain parts of the body. They go really well on the
shoulders or upper arms (Gucci), on the low neck line (Chloe) or all the
way from shoulders to the waist (Givenchy).
6. Animal prints in a ‘patchwork’ style
 |
| Preen |
Animal prints are not news in fashion, although they are returning as
a trend. This time you should style them in a new, fresh way in
patchwork form and you hit the ‘jack pot’. The main leaders of the
trend: Proenza Schouler, Erdem and Preen. Do not forget an accessorizes
in neon green or yellow for a poisons look.
7. Sailor’s stripes
 |
| Marc Jacobs |
Every spring there’s the same story: We hardly wait for a weather get
warmer and that we run away to the seaside. Till the summer break we
have a sailor’s stripes pattern to comfort us. This spring and summer
they got a bit wider. Jonathan Saunders designed them in a ‘V’ shape
over the length of body, March Jacobs hit the vertical and at a ‘high
street’ brand Topshop they have played with asymmetric and slightly
faded stripes. In short, any stripe is not the same stripe, so try to
find your sailor’s story.
8. Suit with shorts
 |
| Emporio Armani |
Business suit with a skirt is an old story, for the next season
designers advice that you change a skirt with shorts in same style, as
the jacket is. Michael Kors suggested a striped suit, Matthew Willimason
with graphical patterns and Emporio Armani in British style as is a
trademark of Burberry.
9. Transparent
 |
| Christopher Kane |
We love transparent, because it seems are nude, but it’s much more
sophisticaed than vulgar barness. It’s unvield, but still covered.
Emilio Pucci, Chado Rucci, Christopher Kane and Stelly McCartney for
spring love a translucence.
10. Sport dimensions
 |
| Hussein Chalayan |
Sport chic and ‘luxe’ are already from last year in fashion favor,
everything since Celine and Stella McCartney brought it up. Stella has
designed a sport jacket with added ‘twist’ with luxury and transparent
fabric, later Victoria Beckham imitated it, but the trend in total with
color-block neon variety has been introduced by Hussein Chalayan.
