Fashion Trends: East and West: London, England

England – London Fashion Week FW 2012

Hello! All you fashionistas! This week I am going to have a touch on the current trend in London, England. Starting last weekend, London has its Fashion Week for autumn/winter 2012 begin. It is one of the “Big Four” fashion weeks along with New York, Milan, and Paris Fashion Week. The home to British fashion is London. London has gotten its unique fashion style sitting in the Northern Europe. Besides London’s famous design style, original/classic design, British are not afraid of playing with extraordinary looks. This fall/winter, I see many exaggerated designs. They may be too flamboyant but it is worth it to try!

I also see many natural elements and prints used on garments. The most popular print is floral print. From McQ, Burberry, Christopher Kane, and many more designers have added such design element and inspiration in their collections. Floral prints have been seen in spring/summer 2012. In fall/winter 2012, abstract floral prints are seen more on garments to present the elegance and flow of flower. In addition, brilliant colors such as bright blue/red, hot pink, and mustard yellow are used to set off these floral prints. At the fashion show, many celebrities also dress up in the garments with floral prints! Floral print is definitely the trend of this year.

Following are several pictures to show you these amazing designs of great pieces!
