SPRING/SUMMER 2015
Trend Prediction
Injustice has been happening in society since the beginning
of time. Within the last three years, we have seen our society react in
protests, shut downs, and social media black outs. This growing mistrust leads
us into a difficult time for Spring/Summer 2015 in having to constantly watch
our backs and wondering if opportunities are just too good to be true.
Faith Popcorn, CEO of BrainReserve-futurist-and my trend
hero- helps us understand these trends alittle bit better through her catchy
definitions.

Popcorn’s theory of “Atmosfear” really drives into the uncertainty
of our society. Very often do we find ourselves trying to complete simple daily
tasks such as going to the mall or just driving without us thinking, “What if
something went wrong?”

Popcorn’s trend “Icon Toppling” goes hand-in-hand with our
society standing up for ourselves and speaking out. Not only are we having
anxiety about everyday tasks, but also now we are questioning our trust in
everyone and everything we come across. Because of the tarnished reputations
that are being broadcasted, our society is questioning the trust in forms that
are here for our protection.
FASHION FORECAST
All of this mistrust, anxiety, and constant fear--leads our
fashion to be on our toes and ready for whatever battle is brought before us.
With military and army attire influences, we see a strong color
palette of navy, light moss, barely beige, and of course--black. We will also notice over-sized, over-done detailing and a tired, distressed fabric choice.

Jacobs and Lauren's Ready To Wear S/S line both embody societies mistrust and anxiety in their lines that portray our combative fashion sense. My Advice: Be Ready To Kick Some Fashion A**!
