Fashion and decor parry well, sharing space, design, art, philisophy and motifs with Elan

THE EVERGREEN BOHEMIAN

THE PRINT REVOLUTION
The print trend leads the runway as designers get more graphic and experimental. Print on print, self -patterned prints are the toast of the runway. Peter Pilotto, Stella McCartney, Tommy Hilfiger, Christopher Kane and Gucci, show their love for prints in their use of fabrics.

THE CASE FOR MINIMALISM
Minimal finds front row admirers with subdued fresh tones, relaxed silhouettes, and new shapes. Calvin Klein, Burberry, Dior, Balenciaga, and Yves Saint Laurent believe in 'less is more' this year. Easy elegance all the way.

BACK TO MONO
Black and white gets a makeover with intelligent designs, pattern play, geometrical detailing and graphic touches. Seen in the collections of Loewe, Moschino and Celine, monochrome is back from the 90s when it was big.

VINTAGE NOSTALGIA
Classic never fades. Rich textures, bold tones, contrasting patterns, and Victorian glamour have made fashion fall in love with vintage again. Spotted this year in the works of Dior, Bottega Veneta, Dolce & Gabbana, Salvatore Ferragamo and Valentino. Old is gold again.
