Snap and Snap

Many British and Spanish friends have suggested me to write in English occasionally, ‘cause Google translator doesn’t always help. For me, nothing better than write in English :)! I'm glad to know that in Bournemouth and London read my blog haha;)


The trend of the studs and black leather, gold and steel, fetish contaminated with futuristic and dark-rock notes, is approaching the last step, when even the more stupid store understand that studded sandals are sold . While this inevitably happens, I'm trying to perceive what’s the next trend, thanks to that strange sixth sense that pinch at the end of every season. Being a cool hunter could (obviously) help, but I’m not: the suggestions are many as always, but I can dare some perceptions.

After a net return to the 80's, jeans jackets with cutted off sleeves, hairs dyed in super blond(relaunched by the beautiful Agyness), and an attention to details and geometric shapes, inconsistent with human silhouette, I believe that the logical thinking leads to a drastic change of perspective.

Instead of focusing on detail, probably the next trend will start by taking human form in its entirety. Clothes that highlight the figure as a whole, creating outifits valuable in their linearity. this could mean a return to minimalism. Harmonic lines, based on the geometry of the human body. In last trend attention was focused also on the most disparate materials, conversely in this minimal trend the focus is on contrasts and visual impact, with less emphasis on tissue. The result would be creations with sober and clean lines and also high-impact. Sculpture clothes, in which the details embellish the entire figure.
