Fall/Winter 2012-13 Trends


The season focuses on patterns inspired by 60s interior design, this time worn to recreate a patchwork of patterns and colors. American-style jewelry, making a reappearance on the runway as presented by Miu Miu mixing precious stones with an engraved cameo, a clear hint of Pop Art philosophy.

Leather is also back not only as accessories, but also in close-fitting garments: a goth-effect for the dark leather dress by Reem Acra. Trends now require items with strong hues: fire red will take center stage both for minimalist women, see Calvin Klein, and for dark ladies inspired by 40s icons, see Michael Kors.

Electric blue is one of the leading trends on the catwalk, shown on geometric garments: the feminine sheath dress by Lanvin.
Among the most alluring trends, dandy style requires a careful research on elegance and perfection through the choice of details: hinting at Oscar Wild for the double-breasted outfit by Miu Miu, inspired by Italian men’s elegance for Ralph Lauren Collection that top off a flared pantsuit with a bow tie, a red silk clutch and a coppola hat adding a Sicilian touch. A cult-garment for Fall/Winter 2012-13 dandies: the textured wool trench coat by CĂ©line.

What makes a difference is the penchant for bizarre in the true sense of the word: as seen in the dress by Roberto Cavalli.
