spring Summer 2008 sees some of
2007 fashion trends reinvented and enhance
for the new season and some brand new ones. The
main fashion trends are...
Monochrome
Monochrome
prints, spots, star and especially striped
patterns will ensure you achieve that perfect
timeless chic look.
Metallics
Metallics are
still big news this summer but unlike last years
full-on bling its toned down and is more subtle.
Tailoring
Create the
right impression in the office with some sharp
tailoring. There are only a few rules, keep
trousers and skirts high waisted and the belt
more subtle then last years oversized ones.
Printed
Spring sees a
welcome to floaty fabrics, prints and folky
details - boho chic is back, but this time with
added polish. Tiered skirts to smock tops
are given a new
lease of life with luxurious fabrics.
Swishy
The skirt of
this Summer is the 'swishy skirt'. Choose a
short yet strong design with a defined waist
line and high cut hem.
Bright and
Bold
Blow away the
cobwebs of those gloomy days and drab greys and
blacks with some bright bold colours. Add a much
deserved splash of colour to your wardrobe!
Silky
Silk, so soft, so
luxurious, so light, so Summer! Ensure you have
at least one quality mini dress this season for
those summer parties and nights out. Just two
rules... It must be short and it must be silk.
There is a soft,
light-as-air feeling to spring. Sheer silk
dresses are so delicate they might fly off at a
hint of summer breeze; florals burst into bloom,
while sweet violet in all its sugared shades is
the new spotlight colour. Feminine, flared and
flirty, the dirndl skirt suits the seasons
free-spirited mood, and even denim turns soft,
in faded blue washes and wispy frayed seams. The
ultimate indulgence? Hand-painted fabrics. The
emblem you must have? Stars, stars and
stars.
