The 2007-08 Fall/Winter Fashion Trend Report


Berry Colors, Winter Whites, opaque tights and Metallics

-Purple Shades of purple, fuchsia and berry reds were seen on almost every runway! These deep hues were accurately balanced out with winter's standard neutrals. Adding this splash of color to part of your outfit or with a piece of jewelry can bring a lost brightness we all seem to misplace with the drop of the thermometer! Gulf Blue or Pink Parfait Earrings

-Alpine & Winter Whites A rich and "clean" staple in winter fashion can certainly be said for winter whites. Designer's added fun alpine twists with penguin knits and sexy accessories to add a needed contrast. Shiney Snake Skin Leather Wrapped Bangles

-Metallics Seems to be a staple in every season, however designer's deepened its tone. Deep metallic silver, bronzy gold and patent blacks were everywhere to be seen. A fabric better to be seen on jackets, footwear, handbags and jewelry. Metallic Leather Wrapped Bangles

Long Gloves, Plaids and Studs

-Gloves One of this season's hottest trends! Gloves, short and long, were seen practically everywhere! Long gloves seem to be perfect for those three-quarter sleeve jackets and coats. Black patent and customary leather seem to be most chosen. We love it when designers actually choose a trend that works for its season! Faceted Black Stone Earrings in Silver

-Plaids Every season has its greatest hit and we think designer's struck gold with this one! They looked past the military cuts and school girl uniforms and transformed plaid into sexy and tough urban wear. Black Chain Bangle

-Studs Studs are not only worthy of your footwear and handbags, designers utilized these hot accents on dresses, jewelry and outerwear. Rainbow Tuscany Cocktail Ring in Gold

Cinched Waists, Knits and High-Collar Turtle Necks

-Cinched Waists Last season bubble skirts were corrected with wide waist-band belts. This year waist cinchers are applied over more flattering cuts. Show off your curves with this great look!

Pink and Gold Graduating Hoops

-Knits Designers showcased an array of heavy and bold knits. We opted to show you these! Knit sweater dresses are great for both day and evening wear. Dress them up with glitzy jewels, silky stockings or your favorite party stilettos! Knit scarves were also hugely publicized in neutrals and deep jewel tones. Black in Gold Hoop Earrings

-High Collars & Turtlenecks Designers jazzed up ordinary turtlenecks with bold gold necklaces. Rich jewel tones and strong shades in black, bronze and silver grey. Seems the higher and thicker the better, at least we'll all stay warm and still look great! Candy Colored Leather Wrapped Bangles
