SHINE IN
Here comes the sun! From sunshine to sunflowers, yellow’s bright hue will radiate
warmth and happiness this spring season. Taking cues from Van Gogh’s
“Sunflowers” and Picasso’s ceramics and terracotta, yellow fashions will shine a
bright spot in your wardrobe. A brilliant and shimmering palette of metallic gold hues
contributes to this lively color trend, evolving into warm shades of tangerine, sun and
marigold as the season progresses. This young and animated color palette lends
itself to all-over dressing as well as highlight and accent shades.

MODERN MOVEMENT
Building on our own individualist wardrobe of timeless, seasonless essentials, a
graphic game for the modernist emerges. Bold black and white morph geometrics
into optical illusions while the inclusion of primary brights adds freshness to this
story. Clean architectural and new minimalist silhouettes emphasize a cool
contemporary edge using silver, metallic and sheer sci-fi materials.

UNDER THE SEA
The beauty and strangeness of the siren’s song call all this spring. Inspired by the
mysteries of the deep, the summer light filters through the water creating fluorescent
and reflective effects. It’s a “color block” celebration where vibrant neon shades in
monochromatic combination and pure black or optic white take this trend to a new
edge. New sheer, shine, and reflective high-tech materials create a clean energy for
minimal and architectural silhouettes as well as active inspired looks.

EVE IN THE CITY
A sensuous palette of flesh-tone hues combined with new pales and metallic has
Venus stepping into the city with a new body language. The color palette’s versatility
as a neutral relates well to texture, allowing for a variety of options when dressing.
Form-fitting curves and draping when combined with soft tailoring, express the
season’s seductive sophistication and romanticized ideal.

AFRIQ UE-CHIC
Fashion fusion and African infusion join together to create merging lifestyles. With
an eccentric and ethnic influence to urban safari, an unexpected juxtaposition forms.
From traditional to sophisticated, a strong message of prints and patterns with gold
highlights emerges. The renewed energy of arts and crafts translates to a mood of
collectibles in an urban jungle.
