Catwalk Trends S/S 09

[Zachman57]

Well both, see through tops and uncovered.

Well maybe they are trying to add in more sex appeal into it. Make themselves more open, or it could be poor measurings.

I kind of like the fact that it seems a lot of designers showed "variations on a theme" of sorts in that they just tweaked past trends or took them just a bit further. It makes a less "trendy" atmosphere overall and makes clothing more relevant longer. Always good considering the state of many of our discretional incomes!

I agree. I may not be paying enough attention, and I haven't finished looking over everything, but I have yet to see anything that really strikes me as new.

I am loving the whole grey for spring, however

I agree - I think it's about mixing all the leftovers from prios seasons in a new way - kind of a challenge for your own closet - how can I make my older stuff new?

Denim Trends for 2009

What do you guys think is going to be a trend in denim for 2009? I am trying to put together a inspiration board for work...any suggestions?

 

[John_M.]

I'm probably sure skinny jeans will still be around as well as high-waisted jeans. And let's not forget the greater of two evils- high-waist skinny jeans. Denim is not only restricted to jeans, so I'm not sure what else could become of denim for this year.

Well jeans is really a staple in most peoples closet so that won't disappear..
though denim used in other pieces, like skirts, dresses, vests etc have been popular for a while.

here is a link to a search I did for all topics about denim made in the trendspotting section, hopefully you'll find lots of inspiration there

 

[imcupcakesam]

Thank you soo much..that really helped me out. I will continue on my inspiration board.

Once again, I think off the shoulder >:[

And it seems the jumpsuit/ boilersuit is here to stay...

 

[Florecita86]

I also see jumpsuits staying in style. It seems they are trying to get that Lady-like style ala Luella popular with the Teen market. To be honest, I have not seen many youngsters fellowing that trend. It seems the still can't move on from the 80's, ugh!

pastel colours

 

[Recca]

I've noticed in my area and the stores around me chunky heels have been pretty popular.
I am not a fan.

Also I liked the Somarta dress that Gius posted.

OH PLEASE NO. We've already seen too much information with the leggings-as-pants trend... why can't we go back to the days when people were happy to get naked in their own homes?

 

[sambeau]

Yay for no pants!

Wow, definitely not for everybody, but looks good on these models!

 

[evutza]

^ looks good, but personally I'd be afraid to dress like this... it would make me feel like I'm wearing a younger sister's clothes
