2016 brings in some refreshingly new color and fabric trends to look forward to. This year’s fashion will be inspired by the world of art that we live in. The spring summer fashion will be driven by warm and soft colors paying tribute to nature and capturing spring in a truthful manner. The colors give the wearer a feeling of calmness mixed with curious exploration. While this years’ fabric forecasting is also hinting towards some exciting new trends. The underlying forecast revolves around the concept of trans. Trans is about merging of opposites into composites, coming up with surprising ways of blending and merging. The world is opening up to new possibilities, pushing the boundaries of class, gender, race and cultural or geographical divisions, people are willing to move forward collectively. Trans can be broadly divided into 4 trends, Past Modern, Deep Summer, Soft Pop and Eco active.
Linen will get a luxurious look this spring summer season. Fibers will get a mix of rich canvas texture with coated handles and flecks of color. A range of fabric qualities will have the bubbled effect created by uneven raised surfaces. The worn softened toweling effect is yet another fabric trend to look forward to, it has a messy matted feel.
The color palette this year will be a clash between lush vegetation and urban design. Rose Quartz resembles the feeling of compassion, Orange hue conveying a warm and friendly feeling will go with all seasons. Serenity, Snorkel blue and buttercup are being seen in the works of top designers. Limpet shell was loved on the runway for its fresh, tranquil yet energetic feeling.
