THE OVERALL MOOD
There are two schools of thought about ready-to-wear this season, firstly
as the world grows nervous about possible recessions we are seeing more
seriousness underpinning the Shows. As we move beyond ‘look at
me, look at me’, fashion today is more about calmness than flash.
The second prevailing theory is that we are fed up with the reality
of life so we seek fantasy and escapism in our garments. These two conflicting
ideals meet in what is being called ‘catwalk classicism’. Fashion
ad guru Sam Shahid put it best, “Things are timeless right now,
or you want them to be.”
 KEY THEMES
There are 11 key themes for this season:
- Organic structures
- Eighties revival
- Lovely lady lumps
- Historic heroines
- Fancy filigree *
- Down beat
- Ardent architecture
- Hats
- Shoes
- Colours
- Extras
* Filigree was originally the ornamental metal work of fine wires,
but it has come to mean an openwork of delicate or intricate design.
KEY POINTS
- Key garment: Structured coat
- Key fabric: Lace
- Key accessory: Outrageous head wear
