Overall trends for the season
  • The globalisation of fashion requires an enquires an equally global outlook. Trends need to be inclusive of many nationalities and cultures to be relevant to all. However they should not be too obviously 'ethnic'.
     

  • Naturals, neutrals and more muted tones will take over as a reaction to the longer reign of full-on colour accessories.
     

  • Retrospective and nostalgic trends will have reached overdose and need a rest.
     

  • Pure and pale tints will continue as a reaction to colour and prints. Neutral tints are chosen, avoiding pastels, which are not as a new.
     

  • Technical materials and finishes will continue to grow especially for the sports market. Using natural colourways rather than stark and colour will give a new angle.
     

  • Bright are not the strongest story of the season. Those featured are washed down and never jarring.
