Catwalk Trends S/S 08

[strawberry daiquiri]

that acid mustard colour, super slinky material, braided/twisted details, pleats and ruffling. most of these are serial trends though I suppose!

 

[DuTTyRoCK112]

There seems to be a very Dynasty/Dallas momentum... The puff shoulder bathing suit at Giambatista Valli, the jackets and skirts for evening at Dior, loose and high waisted pants belted at Versace, pink satin galore at V&R, the star satin dress at YSL...

 

[Tinetush]

There have also been a bit of Asian elements I think, especially the prints at Balenciaga and Dries. Also the Agnes B collection was a bit Asian inspired toward the end...

I like the horizontal stripes. though it is only for the skinnies. it's not very flattering for the big sizes.
the wide pantalons are gorgeous!
