Literature Review 3
Taking
under consideration all fashion trends when becoming a fashion stylist is a key
aspect to keeping my clients happy and interested in my work. I must keep up
with all the latest fashion trends for all four seasons. Taking this into
consideration helped me choose my essential question of what are fashion trends
for fall, winter, spring and summer in 2013-2014? I chose this essential
question because I think it will help me perfect my collection better. I also
wanted to see what the newest fashion trends were for winter, spring and summer
of 2014 so I can apply them to my collection. Fashion trends are a certain
style that comes about that everyone likes and wants to wear. Fashion trends
can come from styles that were hot a while back and just happened to pop back
into style or something completely new.
I love to see what new trends are coming out which old ones come back in
to style and how long they will stay hot on the market. The two sources I used
were websites http://www.harpersbazaar.com
and http://living.msn.com. These sources me
very reliable and gave me useful information with giving me multiple examples
of new and old fashion trends.
Fashion
trends very over the years they are always changing. Fall and winter have
mostly some of the same trends . Camel might be on the
forefront of fashion these days, but this chic hue has never had a passé moment
when it comes to coats. Seen on the shoulders of Grace Kelly and Katherine
Hepburn and now Cameron Diaz, this classic topper is the epitome of luxury and glamour
(20 timeless winter staples). Chunky, cabled knits are always great for warming
up by the fire on a white, winter night, but the borrowed-from-boys cardigans
have just as much staying power on the street as in the store (20 timeless winter staples). A
chic turtleneck and pair of flattering leggings are the basis for thousands of winter
layering combinations (20 timeless winter staples). While aviators are summer's
unofficial sunglass shape, oversized ones are winter's equivalent. They cover
up dry, wind-chapped skin and add unique style glamour to your jeans and coat
uniform attire (20 timeless winter staples). Seriously easy, and equally chic,
a sweater dress is a wintertime no-brainer. Whether cabled and mini, or long
and sleek, deciding what boots to show off will be your only worry (20 timeless
winter staples). Boots that hit right at the knee have a timeless appeal, not
to mention flatter most leg shapes. They look great tucked into jeans and add a
cool touch to tights and a dress (20 timeless winter staples). Luxury is always
in style, darling. Whether fox or faux, a glamorous fur coat will always keep
you chic and cozy, plus take the guesswork out of topping your LBD. But
remember these are modern times, and jeans make an equally perfect pairing too.
(20 timeless winter staples) Literally
the perfect transition coat, a leather jacket is surprisingly warm, without being
bulky. Featuring all the biker bells and whistles, it instantly adds street
style cred to your look (20 timeless winter staples). Leopard print is a season
less classic and the easiest way to wear it during the bitter months of winter
is with an oversize scarf; it adds instant style without animal overkill (20
timeless winter staples). Rules concerning white are so passé. Simply trade
your bright white skinny jeans for a slouchy wool pair. Add a touch of metallic
and a tailored jacket (20 timeless winter staples). Tartan plaid, glen paid, or
buffalo check, plaid is to winter what flowers are to spring. Look for a wrap
in a patterned fabric you can't go wrong with it (20 timeless winter staples).
Spring and summer fashions have mostly some of the same trends
too. Skinny, thick or horizontal, this carry-over trend instantly
brightens our wardrobe. Wear them diagonal or vertical to shave pounds off your
appearance, or go bold with horizontal strips – classic Coco Chanel style. Strips
never go out of style and they look forward to seeing more contemporary
interpretations of this trend in the New Year. (Where to start with this forgettable fashion?
More MC Hammer circa mid-1990s than haute couture, many celebs including Gwen
Stefani and Jennifer Lopez, all tried to rock this look – and did it well. Yes,
these pants DO make your butt look big. (Biggest fashion trends of 2013) “Ruffles
are back, but now modernized in streamlined non-frilly and supersized
proportions in new vertical placements. Girlie is dead, but feminine lives on.”
Says Michelle Henley of FashionEdits.com (Biggest fashion trends of 2013). Pearlescent and iridescent fabrics and lots
of shiny and metallic textures will be
big in denim for 2013. While those treatments will add a little subtle glamour
to denim, I also see distressing making a comeback for in the New Year (Biggest
fashion trends of 2013). High wastes
shorts and pants also made a big come back in spring and summer ‘13 and are
expected to make the same impact in spring and summer ‘14. (Biggest fashion
trends of 2013).
My research answered my essential
question by showing me many different fashion trends and styles that have
evolved over the years and new styles and going to in this year. In my research
I found information about what certain styles go better together than others
and which ones don’t. Knowing these fashion trends will help gain and keep more
clients because they will trust my fashion sense and know that I can help them
look good. My research also showed me examples of how to put outfits together
for each season (fall, winter, spring, summer). My research help contribute to
my project by showing my multiple fashion trends and I can to this under
consideration and apply this information when styling my collection.
