Although
Fall/Winter seems like months away, and the days seem to be
getting hotter, designers have already supplied us with colour and
trends for the season. If you don’t already know, than take a look
below for some of the latest trends and colour that will be making its
way to our stores:
Texture:
Trends this fall will be largely texture driven as Designer have used a
mixture of leather, lace, velvet, fur, feathers, and textured
Fall/Winter fabrics like wool, tweed, and jersey. For example, a thick
wool skirt should be paired with a silk blouse or lightweight cotton
tee. A thick sweater should be paired with slim trousers.
Pleats and Frills:
Pleats, frills, cute rosettes and lovely embriodery is in! they work
great for the Endless Romantic style. Different designs of frills and
pleats on the top of the shirts and dresses or skirts.
High-waisted trousers / wide leg trousers: Wide
leg trouser with high waist comes as one possible form of wide pants,
which are totally trendy. They are comfy, stylish and often elegant
Transparent maxi dresses and maxi skirts: it looks
so effortless, feminine and sophisticated. Loose and flowing, relaxed
sheer pieces. although it’s see-through, it doesn’t mean that you should
show off your breast or underwear, if that’s not your style Go for a
semi sheer option, for instance, or a sheer maxi with a shorter inbuilt
slip or just add some underneath to it. be smart to pair it with a warm
piece of outerwear, like a cropped jacket or a coat.
Bows and scarves: Nothing
in winter is quite as warm, soft and embracing as a beautiful scarf to
wrap around our necks, Super Feminine blouses with bows or scarves are
hot, in a wide varity of fabrics and prints.

boundaries are set as far as prints go, so prepare to be dazzled by
some amazing detailed outfits, which definitely make all the difference.
Floral prints seem to have made a huge impact over the fashion scene as
they are still maintaining a firm position on the runways. Animal is
now such a classic print that designers are using rainbow colours with
these traditional motifs. Green, red, blue and purple are all colours
available in animal print dresses. Leopard, zebra as well as snakeskin
prints look amazing and are must-haves this fall, Ethnic, graphic as

it this season with rounded collars, high necklines, coats with sloping
shoulders and bracelet sleeves. fabrics such as brocade and
accessories made in felt are key pieces that will complete your look

double-breasted blazers and coats with a cool androgynous allure
represent strong, masculine-inspired pieces for fall/winter .

dressed like men, androgyny indeed seems to be the most significant
trend this season.

this trend is not for everyone it still came as a solid contender for
trends to watch out for this winter. One of the most popular theme for
this trend is the dominatrix look. Feel- X-rated - shiny surfaces,
