Fashion Trends & Tips for 2010Tips, Have you wished goodbye to 2009, but not sure in which dress to welcome 2010? Want to be one step ahead in your social circle in this new year? Read on, for the fashion horoscope 2010…

Style statement

2010 underlines the beginning of a new decade, giving us a fresh platform to innovate and create new style statements. After an overdose of exaggerated 80’s fashion flashback, its going to be the start of neo-minimalism or rather a modern romantic phase where fluid and constructed lines will happily reside with each other, generating a new look.

For men, it’s about sporting high-octane styles in vibrant colours, which are carefree in attitude, but still have a stylish niche which bespoke the emergence of experimental fashion conscious men. For women, it’s about dressing in sophisticated clean style lines. It’s about reworking on the classic staples and reviving them in modern context.

Eco-consciousness along with an emphasis on comfort dressing and customization will introduce a new genre of do-it yourself dressing, which gives freedom to the wearer to develop his or her own signature look.

Colours

The contrasting palettes, which would be strong for 2010 spring, comprises lively sets of vibrant sorbet shades of tomato, canary yellow, strawberry to Laguna blue and soft colour family of dusty rose, flesh, granite, beige and lilac.

The new Black for Summer 2010 is the tangy orange. It’s such a powerful hue that a tinge of it saturates the rest of the wardrobe in its flavor of fierce fashionista.

Trends

In the coming year, the draped and the sculpted look is going to be in vogue in a major way for women with focus on detailing like tucks, pleats and ruffles and using embroideries in form of textures.

Innovative materials are replacing the traditional material in embellishments and more fluid fabrics like Viscose blend fabrics, light weight lycras along with eco friendly soya fabric, bamboo fabric, etc.

Accessories

Accessories are unavoidable in modern-day dressing. This coming season, invest in timeless door knob sized cocktail rings with interesting rock details.

Contrasting pairs of patent pumps in sunny yellow, orange or electric blue will brighten your regular little black dress, little white dress and would add panache to your regular jean tee shirt look.

Statement neckpieces, in form of heavy beaded multi-stranded necklaces, couture embroidery, bib pieces etc. instantly amplify the simple dress into fashion master piece.

Metrosexual man

Let me put it in this way, the metro sexual man is now more of urban masculinity. It’s not about muscles neither is it about wearing pink. It’s about the modern man with well manicured, powerful hands.
