Spring/Summer 2011 Trends

Vintage Romance

This trend has influences from the 1970's, the colour plaette remains neutral.  The fabrics used are light weight such as cotten, crochet, lace and chiffons which create more free silhouettes.  Detailing consists of floral embrodiery and beading providing a more femineine look.

Street Fashion

“I want to grow old without face-lifts... I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I have made.  Sometimes I think it would be easier to avoid old age, to die young, but then you’d never complete your life, would you? You’d never wholly know yourself.”   Marilyn Monroe
Fashion allows you to portray yourself on the outside the way you feel on the inside.

Fashion From Vera Wang
Winter  2011 Catwalk









Vera Wang looks at the drapes of the fabric on the silhouette of the body, she uses small detailing and embellishments such as beadwork to create more eye catching pieces.  She has used a lot of black in her collection which creates a more dramatic feel.
