Blogging again...

I haven’t been able to blog on here for quite a while now, my Final Major Project for my final year of uni has been completely time consuming… From the 8th of May I will be blogging often and consistently. 

I plan to do a blog post soon on my Final Major Project, its around the topic of fashion illustration and questions why it isn’t currently used for main marketing and promotional tools for fashion brands.


For now here is a post on “What I Wore”. 

I’m not sure why, maybe it’s the delayed summer, but I am loving a minimal black style atm.  These sandals are literally the best shoes I have bought in a long time, I want to wear them with ever outfit. Unfortunately all the white ones are currently sold out, but I plan to get my hands on them as soon as possible.

Pure London


Yesterday I was lucky enough to go to Pure London fashion buying event for Autumn/ Winter 13/14.
The highlight of the day was the WGSN trend forecast for A/W 13/14. I learnt that there are three macro trends for the coming season; Hack-tivate, Living design and 21st Century Romance. 
Key strong elements that caught my interest for A/W 13/14 are; iridescent materials, computer generated prints, layering, sheer materials, beanies, high neck shapes (turtle neck, chunky scarves, lace neck yokes), skater skirts and structured shoulders.

An iridescent summer

Beautiful iridescent materials are slowly showing up in the high street stores for SS13. 

I personally cannot wait to spend hot and dry summer days at a cocktail bar wearing simple white dress and iridescent accessories.

Nets & Mesh




 
The past couple of weeks I have began to notice garments made from net or mesh creep into fashion imagery and high street railers. Netted items previously associate with tack have now changed their appearance and are now becoming a micro trend. 

How to wear netting this summer? Maybe a large netted top thrown over your bikini? A mesh long sleeve shirt layered under a simple top? A leather skirt underneath a sheet of netting in the same colour? Endless possibilities... Be creative and mix it up how you like!
