Fashion trends S/S 2014

Tired of this cold long winter I decided to focus on summer. I know it's still far but, you know what they say, dream doesn't cost a thing. So I took a look to s/s 2014 fashion shows. A lot of proposals for the next season. Among confirmations and comebacks designers give space to minimal inclinations and exuberance translated in several creative themes like folk, pop and tribal.

Oscar Wilde said that "one should either be a work of art, or wear a work of art". No quote is fairer to describe one of the coolest trend of s/s 2014. That's how bring to life clothes that look like paintings, that represent drawings and pictures of female faces, each of them inspired by the greatest artists like Paul Gauguin and Diego Rivera.

Fashion trends 2012: Pointillism. Art or Fashion?

One of trends for summer 2012 are prints: floral, ethnic, geometric, comics… What struck me most is the one inspired by pointillism.

From paintings to fabrics, from fashion creations to catwalks, this print recreates, as happens on paints of Seurat and Signac, an amazing trompe l’oeil optical effect, created through the decomposition of colors in small dots next to each other, that blend to our eyes .

Brands like Penny Black, of Max Mara fashion group, MSMG and fashion designer Massimo Rebecchi, presented some garments of 2012 s/s collection using pattern on basic and easy-chic dresses, with a sixties mood, easily wearable.
