Spring 2010 Trends
It’s hard to even think about Spring fashion when most of us are just beginning to break out our Fall wardrobe. However, the fashion industry is always 6 months ahead so I thought I would share what’s hot for Spring 2010.
1. Neon – Yes, it’s true neon is back. You thought neon would stay in the early 80’s but like all other trends it came back. The good news is we are not looking at head to toe neon. We are looking at small splashes of neon details mixed with softer tones. So think of an ivory dress with a neon yellow small belt. Or a great pair of black suede heels with a neon coral heel.
2. Fringe – Fringe is adorning many items in the fashion industry this coming Spring. Again though, it’s not the fringe you saw in the 80’s or in cowboy movies. You will see more looped fabric to give the fringe effect. These details are being shown on a lot of necklines. Many jewelry designers like Chan Luu are creating necklaces that look like layers of fringe.
3. Plaid - Small amounts of plaid have found there way into most designers Spring fashion lines. Of course they are more modern and funky than your school girl type of plaid. Look for interesting color combinations or unique fabrics.
4. Metallics – Metallics are just not going anywhere. Muted metallics are still everywhere for Spring so keep all the stuff you had and get more!
5. Booties – In the footwear industry, booties are still completely on trend. Most of the booties we are seeing are slouchy with a heel and a peep toe. We can tell you this, Spring footwear looks great.
