Trend Report SS2013: Graphic Sixties
Short dresses, graphic patterns, eye catching collars, lots of black & white and heavy make-up. The sixties revival was in full swing during the spring/summer 2013 presentations from the likes of Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Moschino and Cacharel. Yet it was out with the doll-ish look and in with the stronger modern sixties styles. Skirt lengths, color palettes and hairdos might have been inspired by the Mad Men era; this sixties girl is definitely more self conscious and streetwise than the girls back in the days. She is not afraid to add peep toe shoes, a giant pearl necklace or even try on a more masculine, boxy kind of ensemble. Her dresses are short yet comfortable. Her prints daring, perhaps even slightly man repelling. But this sixties girl doesn´t care. She dresses up for no one else but herself and is enjoying it to the fulliest.
Streetwear Trend: Graphic Gallore

MiuMiu, Prada, Louis Vuitton and Versus all had the same kind of seventies suits in their fall collections. Suits with bright graphic prints that are now all over the place. Just like the bold and colorful ones Giambattista Valli presented on his runway. A look that takes some guts to pull off. Guts and a strong pair of shoes that keep everything in balance. Velvet ankle shoes perhaps? Or a pair of suede peep toe beauties? Just keep it strong and outspoken, ‘cause this just is not the trend for wall flowers.
