ASOS: TREND ROUND UP

I adore the kaleidoscopic style ASOS have visually summarised A/W12's key trends with, these spherical repeats appeared on my Facebook feed and started to get me excited about how the new seasons trends will translate to the the high street.





Very Berry; Layered berry shades will be the colours of the season.
As seen at Roksanda Ilincic and Christopher Kane.



Man Up; Menswear is big news right now, just see London Collections Mens for the proof. 
As seen at; Miu Miu and House of Holland.




Baroque Rocks; The Royal affect brings us the 21st Century Princess, with heavily embellished pieces layers with boyish tees and jeans to keep it fresh.
Seen at; Balmain and Dolce and Gabbana.



Eastern Opulence; Princess of China gets real, the sporty take by Proenza Schouler should work well on the high street.
As seen at; Proenza Schouler and Dries Van Noten.



Sci-Fi and Fantasy; Well....just see my previous post, Game of Thrones and Prometheus are providing a dystopian escapism from the real world and it's time to play dress up.
As seen at: Balenciaga and Mary Katrantzou.



Leather; Used in more ways than ever, new jacket shapes, new colours and new textures. Kill two trends with one stone with Oxblood leather pieces.
As seen at; Acne and Proenza Schouler. 



Military; The current smattering of camo jackets evolves into a fresh take on the military look, it's all about texture and utilitarian shapes. The Unique collection has to be my favourite of the season although i've never really liked miltary influences.
As seen at; Unique and Maxmara.



Floral vs. Geometric; The digital era adds a new dimension to surface pattern, with mirrored florals and retro repeats appearing across co-ordinate pieces. Source vintage patterns for the best retro looks.
As seen at; Prada and Kenzo.
