Women like fancy outfits and they want to be trendy all the time. Well, at least this is the case with most women. If winter is all about feeling warm and comfortable, things change when the first rays of sun show up in the sky. But, don't forget, for each spring summer season, the fashion world has new rules. What was in last year is not necessarily trendy this year. Although you cannot change your wardrobe on an annual basis, there are some tricks you can use to remain trendy.
So, which are the main fashion trends for spring summer 2013? What kind of outfits are we going to put on this year? Take a look at the main tendencies and you will certainly find something for you as 2013 is a generous year when it comes to fashion.
Flowers, tropical jungle and ethnic inspiration
These are the main three concepts you have to consider if you want to be trendy this summer. While floral patterns are practically a leit-motif for each hot season, this year's novelty lies mostly in the inspiration fashion designers found in the unexplored jungles as well as in the distant Asian continent, from where they brought a wide range of prints: peacock, snake, leopard, hibiscus or lotus flowers, etc. They feature dresses, shirts, but also accessories like scarves and bags.
Another thing coming from the fascinating Far East - the kimono cut is very trendy this year. If the traditional kimono type is too much for you, just take it as a general guideline. A glance at this season's collections will show you that the kimono cut is suitable for dresses, jackets and shirts equally.
Retro, vintage... 50s and 60s
Another thing to consider if you want to be trendy during the spring summer of 2013 is that fashion trends work in cycles. The designers find inspiration in the surrounding world as well as in the past. This year the preference goes to the 50s and 60s and you can be in fashion wearing an A-shaped skirt, a psychedelic patterned outfit, orby adopting the famous yé-yé look once embodied by Twiggy, Francoise Hardy and Jane Birkin.
Remember Audrey Hepburn's dress? This iconic cut is very fashionable, too. Combine it with polka dots and you are will make many pairs of eyes turn after you.
But the retro trend does not refer solely to cuts and iconic items. It can come in the form of a fabric, or technique, such as knitting or crocheting. Many years considered grandma's thing, crocheted dresses are back.
Color block, pastel, total white, black and white, red, iridescent...
Indeed, the chromatic palette of spring summer 2013 is very generous. All the above mentioned themes are in. So, there is something here for everyone. Whether you prefer a more daring look with color blocking patterns, you want to go for total purity and innocence, or, on the contrary you are more into red dresses, anything is permitted. When it comes to pastel colors, remember the nude pink is the tone for 2013.
