5 Primary Trends | London Fashion Week

The handling of trend as a means to push new ideas through the market is something I greatly admire about the fashion industry.  It epitomizes the ability of free markets to dictate preference and incent the development of new products. The trends that follow were taken from Refinery 29.

Extra-Long Fringe—Boho fringe has taken a futuristic turn. This extra-long fringe almost look like an extra-luxe hula skirt!

Over-the-Top Embellishment—Whether jewel-encrusted, beaded, or bedazzled, clothes looked more like the spilled contents of a jewelry box.

White Suits—Every woman needs a sleek, modern suit for their wardrobe. The stark white ones on the runway for spring had us contemplating a new hue to explore a la Bianca Jagger.

High-Shine Metallic—Looking like the folders you used to stash in your Trapper Keepers, high-shine metallics are almost iridescent. We love the look of a structured blazer or skirt to counteract the playful fabric.

Arts-and-Crafts Prints—Prints were everywhere this season, but these ones in specific were chaotic in all the right ways. We don’t remember making anything as spectacular as these in Arts and Crafts class, but we wish we had!
