Runway

Preparing for the LA Textile show put a bit of a speed bump in posting our reviews of the recent Spring 2013 runway shows, but over the next two weeks we’ll be sharing our favorite print trends until we’re all caught up.

We start today with a trend that we predict will really make a splash come next spring. Yep, we had to say it.

If you’re picking a destination for your 2013 Resort holiday, I highly suggest you follow the lead of these designers and take a trip back in time. Somewhere in the 60’s-70’s would be my choice. Vintage prints, colors and silhouettes are front and center in so many Resort collections that it had to be my first print report of the season. Below are a few of my favorite looks in this trend; I’m particularly loving the ones with bright, contrasting colors!

Several trends are evident after seeing the Fall 2012 RTW runway shows, and faux animal skins, big cats in particular, seem to be a popular choice for outerwear. Whether your wardrobe is simple and sleek or full of colors prints, a jacket with an animal print may fit in rather nicely.

Just when I thought this fall might bring a shift towards minimalism as designers {potentially} grow weary of prints, Suno saves the day. There are so many print themes to love in this collection, from the chic neutral countryside, to the new classic; the printed LBD. Am I nutty to think there’s a little something here for everyone? What do you think?
