Designer Mode Dailies looks at the upcoming trends that are likely to dominate ramps and streets in the coming year. Designer focussed on the ‘visible woman’ which was shown by an embellished over coat runways. Perfectly designed for the tall and thin woman, the pleats which move with the body, was seen on the catwalk at Lanvi and the Chloe shows. Death of Minimalism The other noticeable trend was the visibility of women. Breaking away the accepted norm which often showcases the “slick bland minimal look” especially for springwear, Prada went out of its way to turn in a bold, sporty and embellished collection, especially in the outerwear. Prada was not alone. At the Celine show in Paris, Phoebe Philo waved a long goodbye to her trademark minimal, chic but wearable clothes by providing colourful motifs influenced by street art, especially graffiti. T he Paris Fashion Week showcased just what was likely to dominate the ramps and streets across the world for 2014. Biker jackets, glitter and grunge marked the welcome end of minimalism, while Coco-Chanel’s ‘painting’ swimsuits and clutch bags styled as portfolios suggested that art would be the new fashion this year. The end of minimalism can be seen through the dash of colour at the Paris Fashion Week 10 Perfect Pleats Considering that designer Alexander McQueen has been named as the new sponsor of the London Art Fair, later this month, this trend is only likely to get bigger and more innovative. Fashionistas had plenty to rejoice over, as the Issey Miyake pleat came back out of hibernation and onto the Rise of the Power Woman From string vests, below the knee pleated skirts with uneven hems the collection suggested the “visible woman” would be the trend dominating runways across the world. Perhaps the collections are inspired by some real life events. With Marigay Mckee leaving Harrods to become the president of US retail giant Saks and Stacey Cartwright, former Burberry finance director looking set to become the new CEO of Harvey Nichols, power women are definitely goDesigners did ing to be in the public eye away with pink in 2014. and focused unashamedly on “Golden” Era in-your-face golden The abandonment foil yellow of subtle could also be seen in the choice of colours. Designers across the board deliberately did away with subtle tones of cream and even pink – a must choice for every woman’s wardrobe in the past – and focused unashamedly on in-your-face golden foil yellow. With golden party frocks dominating the ramp at Lanvin and Yves Saint Laurent, the era of flamboyance seems to have come back. Jean Mutation Accompanied by a chic hair parting – no not the goody goody side parting of yesteryear – and Spring Summer October 9 - 13, 2013 DAILIES : DAY 0 Art dresses (left) were a common theme and street fashion (right) indeed the tweed over coat era Arty Jeans: Straight jeans are out. Add a little bit of colour to your jeans through patchwork art Embellished Overcoats: Signalling the rise of the power woman, these coats also signal the end of minimalism Golden Wonder: Flamboyance is in as golden frocks make an appearance on the ramp Bad is Good: Biker jeans, glitter and grunge put an end to tweed overcoats. The emphasis on hourglass curves and breast-hugging bodices, suggested that the sensual but street-smart woman was back Flamboyance was in as golden dresses (left) and motifs on purses (above) were the new trend slick biker jackets, bad was very much the new good this year. Another noticeable trend that should dominate street fashion next year is the advent of patchwork jeans. Showcased by Junya Watanabe, these jeans, which are straight leg and arty, could thankfully end the boring mono-toned jeans that we have been seeing for far too long on the streets. Sharp curve ahead The welcome result of all these trends is the return of femininity. The accentuation of colour and the emphasis on hourglass curves and breast-hugging bodices, suggested that the sensual but street-smart woman was back with a bang. The other noticeable trend was the elaborate work on the skirt. Showcased in an array of styles, the skirt provided many fashion watchers had been crying out for a long time – colour, style and elegance. Water is the best way No fashion collection can ever be complete without a salute to the summer. In the past, this has invoked safari chic, garden parties and florals and this year too summer translates into a tribute to the ocean. Designers choose to play with the theme, with one designer focusing on fisherman’s hats and peacoats, while another showcasing womens’ sandals with diving mermaids for heels. Conservation too was an issue with Japanese designer Kenzo Takada, bringing out a surf-themed collection, with a slogan T-shirt, clearly aimed at raising money to stop the campaign against over-fishing. 11 Spring Summer October 9 - 13, 2013 DAILIES : DAY 0 re Here a e . s f u i o r odel L fe is glamou ’s li M a model at isn’t so. t a o k n i N People th ons why th reas some Dating?

Endless Wait Many people see models walking on the ramp wearing the best clothes and conclude they are living the life. That isn’t true. Many junior models talk about how their lives are comprised of long hours of waiting by the phone for work, how they must spend lots of time and money on working out, getting the right tan and look in an industry where you might/might not make it.

According to fitness trainer Althea Shah, from Gold’s Gym India, “If you walk or jog regularly, add an extra 15 minutes to burn the extra calories you may consume during the festivities.” As for curing hangovers, Shah adds, “Yoga can be one of the best fitness routines after late night partying, as it promotes detoxification, which helps relieve headaches and stomachaches.” Spring Summer October 9 - 13, 2013 DAILIES : DAY 0 Fashion Wrap Looking Back Winters are enthusing and the most awaited season of the year. While others may seek shelter and hibernate, for the fearless its time to dare the chill and rejuvenate. Mohit V Bhardwaj takes a look back at the trends that made the last Fashion Week memorable. Opulent Fabrics Nature’s Diktat Icy chill with aquamarine blues, purples and peaches was the theme for the winter. A sense of geometry came into light with a skillful combination of miniscule and larger prints. The solids this season played bases and borders, while the colour grouping of yellows, greens and sky greys looked eloquent. A few other elements like pleats and bolder yokes portrayed a greater sense of importance, while velvet looked really authentic juxtaposed with a satin surface. Ikkat motifs were artistically placed on bigger shapes such as crossover trenches. Waist coats teamed with high-necks looked ultra modern. Being Bold Minimalism teamed with boldness worked wonders. Intricate textures on ensembles teamed with loud accessories such as tiaras and headgears were the rage last season. All-over African motifs accentuated with feathers and multicolored beads made an ideal ensemble for icy winters. There was a paradigm shift, with another dimension added, making the colors look threedimensional. Boxy silhouettes had broad borders, while leather surfaces showcased crispness and sensuality. The highlight of the season was the fusion of pop-art and tribal designs while Braille script effect on monochromatic surfaces represented the subtle theme. The voyage to the hypothetical world has a sense of opulence with layers and volumes of fabrics. The treatments of georgettes, satins, dupions and velvets added regal dynamism, while kaftan bodies induced the sense of freedom. Design elements such as button holes are here to provide aesthetics and not functionality. Vibrant phulkari with umpteen colorful threads, metal mesh working out to be crucial and highlighting the important areas gives a sense of authority. The trousers are experimental with low crotches and pleats. All-over head to toe printed ensembles was a visual delight, with a mix of Persian and Japanese influence. Coloured fringes and jaaliwork were the other elements that stood out. Bohemian Stroke The silhouettes are bigger yet curvy, there’s fun and quirkiness added to chicer surfaces. A palette of solid maroons, mustards with reds add coziness to the enigmatic weather. Classy floor sweeping gowns celebrate feminism to greater heights. Luxurious chiffons and satins give out country-side appeal. The peasant silhouettes are twisted a slight androgynous way with chequered patterns and angular hemlines. Most awaited psychedelic 70’s are prominently making a come back with colors and prints. Evidently visible livelier prints with uni-color bases give a hint of edgy street smart attitude. Romance Prevails Experimentation was the key, sequins, dabka-work and thread embroideries ruled. Brighter and lovestruck colours, with tonal variations ranging from oranges to various reds were prominent, while saffron took centre stage. Indian silhouettes like multiple paneled tunics and anarkalis were eagerly sought after while features such as dori-tie ups brought in that element of desire. Basic shades like charcoal black incorporated with techniques like bandhani are highlighted with rich embroideries in burnt orange and deep blues. On the one side chikan-kari and gota-work plays a crucial role, while on the other, faux furs, draped sarongs and long sarees offers the sense of volume. Diagonal color blocking is another exciting feature. There is a great concoction of surfaces - see through bases are teamed well with opaque fabrics to evoke the harmonious sentiments. 13 Spring Summer October 9 - 13, 2013 DAILIES : DAY 0 Eat is awesome Adolescent Attire Seasons come and go but with just a few necessary items in your wardrobe, you can be a fashionista all year long!
