SPRING 2013; TRENDS

SPRING 2013; TRENDS

New York Fashion Week has ended and the international shows have begun. It is just getting cold enough to get out our fall boots and sweaters, but we have already started thinking about the spring/summer favorites from the shows!

Here are tidbits of trends I have noticed so far:

Even the most neutral collections still sent out hits of yellow or red.

(Tory Burch, Oscar de la Renta, Ralph Lauren, Neem Khan)

Horizontal, vertical, diagonal – stripes were a reoccurring sight.  Marc Jacobs kept things mod while Lauren Moffatt took the preppy route.

These awesome digital prints are a favorite.  Mary Katrantzou, the print queen, used different stamps and currency to create her pieces.

There was a cool Eastern feel with caftans over trousers, wrapped saris, and obi belts.

(Altuzarra, Diane von Furstenberg)

I love that Eastern vibe, which is something Mata took great inspiration from for their upcoming spring line.  The designers are in India finalizing the collection as we speak.  It is their largest collection to date so stay tuned!  Sneak peaks are coming soon and you guys are going to love it!
