African ethnic.

African ethnic.

The designer as if calling us to put on the nature of Africa itself, with its textures. Wood, sand, paints, the skin of African animals and bird feathers – all this has become the basis for amazing fabrics that imitate what is created by nature.

Insanely beautiful earthen and plant shades, large jewelry, embroidery, ostrich feathers as an element of decoration or even as a material (for example, for a skirt) – European spring and summer may well be colored with African mood!

Suprematism Fashion to Retro logically led us in the twenties of the last century, and another interesting topic appeared on the catwalks – Suprematic geometric sketches.

Suprematic influences in summer collections 2012 look varied. Firstly, it is red, black and white with large color spots-a kind of hello to Malevich.

Other colors with clear boundaries and in chopped lines also look very relevant, especially in combination with a difficult cut and elegant, unusual details of dresses.

Large, bright drawings in the Art Deco style used on fabrics (a logical continuation of the tendency to combine prints in a variety of ways) is also a new idea of ​​this spring.

And, of course, the Suprematist graphics go well in dresses with other topics of the twenties, for example, with plissing, like Prada. By the way, this motive has not just returned to fashion, it also organically fit into the present: how, for example, a combination of geometric elements with a transparent texture? The real effect is 3D!

Transparent fabric gives geometry volume and softness, making the image graphic, but romantic.
