Stark, colorful brush strokes and watery, ethereal paintings make up another of our favorite trends spotted within the Resort 2013 collections. Styles ranged from the bold and minimal, to the sort of colorful complexity that can only be captured in a digital print. Luckily, you don’t have to be Picasso to nail this one, just get out those paints and start having fun. Maybe even keep one for your refrigerator.
Scarf motifs could be spotted all over the 2013 Resort collections, bringing with them an update on both menswear and bohemian prints. I especially love Givenchy’s approach, pairing finely detailed and traditional motifs with bold, solid geometrics.
Lace was a huge trend in the Resort 2013 collections. Ginormous, even. While the majority of it was authentic, many designers used it in bold and graphic ways, laying the groundwork of inspiration for textile artists to apply to their prints.
With the new Spring shows literally just around the corner, I’ve nearly missed the window of opportunity to gush about all the incredible print trends the Resort collections had to offer. Alas, the goodness shall not be wasted. I’ll be recapping my favorite trends over the next few days, starting with a set of florals that would be worthy of any local art gallery. Paired with bold stripes, fragmented, and tossed with artful, expressive brush strokes – these postmodern florals have a quirky sophistication.
July was just bonkers. If you noticed the recent drop in posts you’ve probably already figured that out. But it was a good kind of busy, with exciting new projects and developments, and a little bit of fun on the side. So without further ado I’m bringing you another big time trend from the Resort 2013 collections. I’m still not certain that the mass population is ready to full-on embrace the head-to-toe printed ensemble, particularly the matching pant suit. These designers, however, are clearly ready. From simple to statement and everywhere in between; would you give one of these looks a whirl?
