Spring is that perfect season we all wait for impatiently. As for the spring/summer 2011 fashion season, it seems this will come with a whole new feeling of optimism, colors, romantism, and flirty, cheerful fashion trends. At least, this is the most appropriate conclusion one can draw when seeing the first spring 2011 fashion shows presented on the big catwalks. For every fashion addict, here are some of next season's main trends.
After a dull, gray winter, what is more welcome than a cheerful,
colorful spring? This is the most appropriate time for you to
refresh your wardrobe and enjoy life to the fullest. Get ready to
face a real color boom. Vivid, strong colors could be seen on
fashion runways. Neon green, orange, and yellow and other powerful
colors were spotted at Michael Kors, Calvin Klein, Jil Sander, Max
Mara, Prada, and Gucci. Zac Pozen used fruity, delicious colors for
genuine, feminine combinations in his Z Spoke collection. These
shades represent the perfect options for stylish women who are not
afraid of wearing vibrant colors.
Romantic girls around the world, unite! Girly, romantic style is
"in" for spring/summer 2011, expressed through Liberty prints
(Alexander Berardi), but also larger floral prints (Nanette
Lepore). At D&G, the floral prints could be seen everywhere.
Another trend that cannot be ignored is the ethnic one that was
seen at Marc Jacobs, Ruffian, Just Cavalli, and Etro. Therefore, we
are expecting a sweet, bohemian spring next year with flowers on
the fields and on our dresses too. However, despite this sweetness
wave, there is also the animal print (Just Cavalli, Blumarine) for
those of you who have a wild side.
Besides these colors, a spirit of freshness and minimalism was
present through two main colors: white and nude. Numerous designers
based their collections on immaculate looks. Nude could be seen at
Narciso Rodriguez and Hervé Ledger, while white at Diane Von
Furstenberg, Lacoste, or Tommy Hilfiger. A more bucolic feeling
could be spotted at Dolce & Gabbana, where white embroidered
and lacy dresses seem to announce one of the most romantic seasons
ever.
Next spring, it is time to invest in a classic, simple white shirt.
Of course, if you haven't done it yet. This was the star item on
many fashion shows at New York Fashion Week, presented in so many
different styles and versions. For example, at DKNY the white shirt
was the main piece of the collection, at Michael Kors it had a
casual touch, and a more stylish one at Derek Lam, while at
Carolina Herrera it was super chic.
This next trend is for all retro lovers. For spring/summer 2011 get
ready to rock the new '70s-inspired fashion style. Marc Jacobs and
Elie Tahari are two of the many fashion designers that found their
inspiration in the '70s fashion. At Marc Jacobs, the '70s dresses
have amazing ink, sapphire, or emerald colors. If you had enough of
the skinny domination, you should know that it will soon be over as
spring 2011 brings the high-waisted flare jeans (Derek Lam), '70s
style, back into the spotlight.
“Maxi” is a key element when describing spring/summer 2011 dresses
and jumpsuits. Ports 1961 recommended these items made from
sumptuous fabrics in different shades of blue, emerald green,
tropical coral, dusty pink, or champagne. We totally loved the
jumpsuit trend this summer. Well, there is no surprise, we can find
it for spring 2011 among the hottest fashionable pieces. Jumpsuits
come in so many different versions from very chic at Derek Lam to
casual, flower printed at Marc by Marc Jacobs and Rebecca
Taylor.
Spring 2011 is all about comfort, laid-back styles, and
relaxation. This is why many designers came out with loose clothes,
comfy shoes, and breezy fabrics. There are a myriad of styles and
shapes and some of them were in the spotlight for so many seasons
in a row. You already had so many chances to purchase a military
jacket. If you haven't bought one yet, it is time to think
seriously about it, as next spring military style (Wes Gordon) is
at duty again. Or, if you are more into the elegant style, try a
'60s inspired coat in a citrus color (Michael Kors). Other
important trends for spring 2011 are: the dandy style (Paul Smith),
biker style (Burberry), or the urban chic (Antonio Berardi), sport
chic (Alexander Wang).
