Trends and ColoursSummer 2009

PARADISE NOWFashion discovers a new light-heartedness. Gone is the age o austerity in patterns and colours. Imagination

and optimism express themselves in a sensory, multi-aceted palette o shades. P rints and coloured abric lead

into a paradisiacal garden with eervescent creativity. Dreamy blossoms, vegetal ornamentation and ancient

motis o archaic cultures are re-interpreted in modernity and have us looking on in wonder. All o this on

abrics which describe silhouettes playully and with reshness and relieve them o any sign o heaviness.

01 - COLOURS

1 - NATURAL BEAUTYThe deeply elt longing or authentic naturalness expresses itsel in sot, light neutral shades. Chalk, paper, par-

chment, corn and leather add natural nuances. Sky blue rereshes like a summer breeze. A relaxed allure banks

on sophisticated natural blends and ligree, unobtrusive patterns. Relaxed urban shapes characterize a timeless

modernity which has no need to orce itsel into the oreground.

2 - FLOWERINGOptimistic blossoms transport a colour palette ull o sensory emotions. Coral, lilac, poppy and mimosa a rouse

eelings o spring. Prints and coloured abrics provide them with rhythm in new diversity. Transparencies, silky

suraces and fowing Jersey create a eminine eeling. The light-heartedness o the fower children provides

inspiration or imaginative outts which playully display creativity and individuality. Fluo spots add uturistic

stimulation.

3 - LIQUID SPACEGreen is the new sel-conception o a generation which brings ecological awareness and modernity into har-

mony with each other. Vegetal and aquatic worlds ascin ate with their diversity o kinds and orms. The shades

o shimmering water suraces are the motivation or resh green and blue nuances. Vegetal greens extend rom

casual khakis to intensive chlorophyll. A sporty look in contemporary unctionality provides new chances or

technics in bres and nishes.

4 - IMPROVISATIONExotic paradises move ever closer as a result o modern travel and communication habits. Their tribal messages

are archaic basic patterns, whose appeal has retained its strength to this day. Deep, dark exotic woods, tradi-

tional indigo or the powerul accents o tropical fowers or birds o paradise embody expressive harmonies. As

in World Music or cuisine, the shades are combined like samples. The most varied directions o olk a nd street

culture infuence fow into a very individual style and personal remix.

are re-invented by means o the latest technology. On new print grounds and in surprising colour contrasts, they

are anything but remakes. Among the ba ckgrounds, silky aspects or ne cotton eature prominently.
