Runway Report Part I

Want to know what to save or stash for Fall 2007? We have made cleaning out your closet a whole lot easier with our trend report.

TRENDS: There was a touch of the twenties with drop-waist full skirts, ruffled tiered dresses and sequin adornments. We will also still see influences of the 60’s carry over from Spring 2007. My favorite of all “Parisian Chic”!

COLORS: Muted tones paired with neon brights, black, heather grey, metallics, whites and reds.

MATERIALS: Wool, tweeds and silk.

SILHOUETTES: Dresses, dresses, dresses!! Shorts dresses, trapeze dresses, to-the-knee dresses and the list goes on.... We will also see drop waist mini skirts, loose fitting men’s style trouser pants, cigarette pants, swing coats and blazers.

NOTABLE ACCESSORIES: Add a bit if chic and glamour to any outfit with a “beret” (which was on almost every designer’s runway). Some other spotted items were: the peep toe shoe, lace up ankle boots (“granny boots), mary janes and leather biker jackets.
