Stripes, right? Michael Kors, Marc Jacobs, Tommy Hilfiger, etc.

 

[Pricciao]

mellow yellow, pumpkin orange, and steel blue, so far the main colors in New York
a lot of beaded and metallic collage things
brocade print is also quite popular

 

[LagerfeldBoy]

What about white galore? That's what I saw the earlier days of NY fashion week. A sea full of white clothes, which to be honest I'm dreading to see pop up more in future collections.

 

[Lena]

^ White is not a trend, it's a 'classic' for ss collections

anyway, mrs La Ferla from NYT sees 'A Touch of Fetish' #NYFW shows
taking lead from Alexander Wang, BCBG, Altuzara, Marc Jacobs & Rodarte
not sure if i agree with here

here is the article

^ White is not a trend, it's a 'classic' for ss collections

Yes, white is an obvious SS staple, but it does indeed become a trend when it dominates entire collections or if it becomes a repeating statement like we've seen this week.

 

[Pricciao]

should wait and see how milan goes, cause New York is always full of white
also leather and mesh, which are pretty much taken from previous seasons

 

[Crying Diamonds]

I often find that whatever is preached in New York as a trend is never echoed in the rest of the capitals.. but anyway:

Scalloped Edges/Semi-circles:

Tracey Reese
Marc Jacobs
Barbara Tfank
Araks
A Detacher

Joan Crawford Shoulder:

The broad style of the forties

Zero Maria Cornejo
Theyskens Theory

[MulletProof]

^ exactly, CD!, that's why I'm always hesitant about whatever's seen in New York.. cause they're usually recycled ideas from the current season and the rest of the capitals are onto something else (big trends start getting defined with Milan).

Especially trends like white, transparency, lady-like, florals.. NY designers revisit them every.single.season.

What does everyone predict will be the most used collections and/or specific pieces for spring magazine editorials?

 

[Crying Diamonds]

What does everyone predict will be the most used collections and/or specific pieces for spring magazine editorials?

I'm imagining very graphic editorials, about print and cut, the patterns of Vuitton and Marc Jacobs, mixed with the volumes and graphic cuts of the likes of Givenchy, Calvin Klein, Burberry, etc.

 

[AnaO]

I agree about LV and MJ, also Chanel (especially the crazy accessories) and perhaps Balenciaga ruffled skirts.

 

[TianSoFine]

I feel like we saw a lot of crop tops. Balenciaga, John Galliano, I'm fairly certain there were a few in London and New York that I can't think of right now.

 

[fashion wit]

How about the SS 2013 trend: items adorned with floral 3d. like in CHANEL , DRIES VAN NOTEN, ALEXIS MABILLE, BLUGIRL, ISABEL MARANT......

Scuba Suits

quite strange right?

 

[Alyssa-K]

^The first one looks kind of good, more body-like, but the two looks after are really strange. I don't see what is chic about wearing a one-piece bathing suit under your clothes. And I don't think it is comfortable either..
