Spring/Summer 2008 Trend Report
Blazers
The only cover up you need this summer is the blazer. There will be many different versions from boy pinstripe to the white embellished. The most versatile comes from the master of tailoring Karl Lagerfeld for his K line. Instantly flattering, his tuxedo style jacket will last you a lifetime.
High waist
The high waist trend looks set to continue with each and every collection showing some version of this trend. In particular we love the high waist super flare trouser and tailored short.
Colour
The future is bright with colour making a big comeback this spring. Fashionistas will be decked out in fuchsia pinks, violent violets, cobalt blues, intense yellows and vibrant greens. If you don’t do head to toe colour add accents with bright accessories.
Flower Power
Blossom this spring by embracing the floral trend. The catwalks were awash with flowers and floral motifs for Spring/Summer 2008 from pansies to pogonias. Not a flower lover? Accessorize your outfit with a super sized corsage or add a flower to your hair.
Androgyny
Boy/girl or girl/boy? Androgyny is a going to be a huge trend for spring. Trouser suits, long vests, blazers, long line vests and tailored shirts add a touch of boyish charm to your wardrobe. For once look to the man in your life for inspiration!
Sheer Transparent Fabrics
The sheer and transparent look is a breath of fresh air this spring. Sheer knitwear and tops in nude colours look super layered during the day. For evening choose a lingerie look dress.
