Breeze into sizzling spring fashions
Spring’s new fashions include a wide range of new and exciting, sporty looks and fabrics.
Hipsters, tons of vibrant and energetic colors, and edgy prints are all the rage for the upcoming spring and summer seasons.
These trends provide both comfortable, simple wear and sexy, endearing looks.
It’s time to start thinking about summer lovin’ and havin’ a blast. Think cabana boys and tropical drinks poolside. Think surfboards and bikinis.
The season’s hottest trends prepare us to bask in the sun. Surf chic is a must have for all wardrobes. This appealing look made its debut in last summer’s movie, Blue Crush, and it’s a must have for everyone.
Leave it to Chanel and Balenciaga to take a sophisticated approach to this style. When it comes to the sporty appeal, Yohji Yamamoto and Adidas finish first with their Y-3 collection.
For those preferring a tropical look, the runways were loaded with floral prints, bikinis, minis and micro minis – all with sporty appeal.
Sexy dresses for those hot summer nights were the craze at Luella Bartley, but don’t you forget Tommy Hillfiger’s geometric tops and bottoms in vivid oranges and yellows. Spring and summer never looked and felt so good.
Prints that jump out and capture your eye are definitely the direction this season.
Charles Nolan at Anne Klein and Jeremy Scott took a more futuristic approach, simulating a parade of models stepping out of the Jetson’s space ship.
While at Ralph Lauren and Donna Karan, the prints went retro and had an antique spin giving the impression that they’d been nesting in a vintage shop for years.
Still other designers took an international approach, bringing Asian and Middle Eastern inspired graphics to the runway.
This look features simple silhouettes with a fuss-free palette – basic black, pale neutrals and white. These simple colors enhance the cut of the dress making it a stunning piece of clothing.
Now back to a brilliant scheme of colors. Vivacious hues in lilac, hot pink, tangerine and electric blue are some of the lively tones for this season.
Jeremy Scott’s kimono dress in pale pink, lilac and mint green definitely lit up the runway. Lighter fabrics in these colors were all the rage at Peter Som. The line received rave reviews for a collection that was fresh, minimal and meant to be worn anywhere.
To cope with this season’s flashy colors and abundant prints, sunglasses are a necessity.
Ferragamo did away with wire rims and opted for metal frames accented with crystals.
Chanel also made a change this season and traded silver tones for gold and topaz.
Geometric shapes and graphics aren’t only seen in clothing but sunglasses as well. Armani introduced us to a rounded but rectangular frame this season.
While at Burberry, Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent, the timeless Jackie O large frames have been revived. Muted colors and clear-mirror lenses glamorize these sunglasses.
Whether it’s glamour and glitz, sleek and chic or comfortable and casual, there’s something for everyone this season.
So follow the trends and take your wardrobe to places it has never been before. The fashionistas won’t be disappointed.
