As Milan Fashion Week finishes and Paris Fashion Weeks gets
underway, it is clear to see that there are two key trends that are ruling all
the runways- ‘ Florals’ and ‘Animal Prints’. These themes have inspired collections
worldwide and will continue to flourish in 2014.
In London we saw Temperly triumphing with her flower
designed collections and she incorporated animal print into one of her ultra
feminine designs, pairing this with a stunning bejewelled long sleeve
transparent top. Next year we will also see a lot of layering, loose fitting
and flowing designs.
Over in Milan, Pucci
incorporated Animal Pring into his more street style 60’s short skirt
collection. It was evident that after a season of sleeo, sexy minimalism,
Emilio Pucci designer Peter Dundas has returned to the brand’s hippie roots for
Fall 2014. His collection combined 60’s rock chic super short skirts, patterend
and sheer long-sleeved dresses, animal print belost and long thigh length
boots.
Jil
Sander was also inspired by the floral theme and launched her runway collection
with prints focused around flowers and
patterns in Milan. In line with this
trend, Versace filled the catwalk with bold flower prints, while MSGM created a
collection which was packed with a patchwork of florals. Marni added an
oriental twist to the theme, creating kimono-style jackets with bold floral
patterns.
One
of our favourite collections was by designer Giambattista Valli who combined
silky flowing tops with shorts of every style in faded silk in 3D floral.
The
Gimbattista Valli collection finished their catwalk show with white flowers
printed on lilac ( one of the core colours next year) and a design which appeared
like golden branches encrusted into the dress like jewels. Floral jewellery
will be a big next year so make sure you check out our latest designs at Lolo &
Galago. We will be showcasing some of the most unique floral designs in early
2014.
