Latest Trends in Air with New York Fashion Week Spring 2011
It is usual for an average guy to stumble upon the fashion trends that change on a constant note. Are you thinking of carrying trends over to the next spring or may be fearing of walking as a fashion disaster? It is time to go through the fashion trends coming straight from the New York fashion week 2011.
The major trends that the New York fashion runway saw this spring are globe trotter, marine life and military. Do you remember the time of captain cook sailing to explore faraway lands? Well, maybe not you but surely the designers do. The spring fashion trend was seen playing with the idea of clothing that travel through the adventures worldwide.
Gilded Age, a designer has brought dress shirts in fabrics that look aged by sun. The selection features utilitarian details with multi-pocket jackets, drawstrings at your waist and epaulettes. If you are a budding world explorer then you must try this cool trend.
Duckie Brown, another fashion trend setter, looked forward to try out a collection of attires which has each piece of different fabrication. You get to wear every piece of your outfit in different color, print and texture. If you judge by the last group of the New York spring fashion show, you would definitely feel as if you are looking at the dresses of Thailand hipsters.
However, I must tell you that the unusual mix of pattern and color proportion did create an eccentric east meets west look.
Fashion trends are greatly inspired by many designers’ childhood and so was the latest New York fashion week. Billy Reid presented his pieces in traditional madras jackets like handmade patchwork and heirloom type buckled belts. These pieces evoked a historical sense, the kind you would probably buy when you are travelling.
When now you go shopping, look out for one of these to add to your closet: button down dress shirts with sleeves tabs, light weighted lived in leather jackets, field jackets with plenty of patch pockets, travel bags in leather, awning stripes, vintage prints and patchworks.
The New York fashion week very clearly saw attires in aquatics like fishing and scuba diving. Navy seals formed the inspiration of neoprene scuba bottoms and tops, flip flops in camo prints and neons. On the other hand, the trend that caught the attention of most people was the Chai blend in fishing and military themes. Oversize sleeveless cargo parkas, ribbed and net sweaters, seaweed green jackets and fishing hats walked the New York fashion ramp.
Michael Kors in fact thought of showing something different from the league and came up with marine life trends. He used hemp, rope and linen in color palette of neutral colors like cream and white and presented an easy wearable wardrobe. So, if you do not like the jazzy or over the top fashion trends go for this collection and update your style.
Without pressurizing your mind too much, just go out and add camouflage prints, marine inspired watches, rope cardigans, light weight parkas and linen trousers in white to your wardrobe.
