2012 has been a very lovely and fulfilling year, with lots
of good news, achievements, and discoveries, blessings within and outside the
fashion industry.
In 2012 we saw different fashion trends revealed by various
designers on the runway and in their look books but the question is what trends
will be carried on into 2013. From the long list of trends that reigned through
2012, from sheer, lace, high slits, shorts, etc which ones will trend in 2013?
It’s obvious some of the 2012 trends will come along into the New Year but it’s apparent also that new ones will be discovered. I took up a challenge of looking through the past and most recent collections – Spring/Summer, Pre Fall, Fall/Winter, Ready-to-Wear to examine what trends so far within the last couple months, say three months will extend into the New Year. And yes, there are new trends, beautiful and safer ones too.
Some of these trends include; leather, stripes thanks to Marc Jacobs and Rebahia, lace …more lace, African print, folds & wraps, flares, capes and lines, holographic details and more.
My favourite pick of trends to watch in 2013 are highlighted below….
