New season, new slate. With the ongoing trend in today’s political life, food, it was only a matter of time for it to spill into the clothes we wear. The trend is going green and everyone is on for the ride. What better way to welcome in the new season with a clean slate?
The powers that be of the fashion realm, have transformed going green, cleaner energy, cleaner eating and overall cleaner, greener lifestyle into cleaner design. The aesthetic to be embracing this season is fresh, clean, tailored, neutral garments. Spearheading this movement are the designers at Chloe, Celine, Calvin Klein, and Donna Karan. The designers have discovered that less can be more this season, and that minimalism is the way to go.
This trend always works great when done correctly. The staple that this trend will add to your closet is the white shirt, the neutral tone crisp skirt, and the perfect peep-toe wedge. For work, ladies, this trend is perfect, you can match a beige skirt, with a crisp white shirt, topped off with a great camel tone heel. Another way to go shown as shown in picture 2 and 3, going with a simple grey tank tucked into a charcoal pencil skirt under a great blazer. Remember, less is more here so don’t ruin the look by accessorizing too much.
This look, although crisp and clean is anything but boring. Hussein Chalayan definitely proved this during fashion week. The neutral crisp looks were designed with a twist, a thigh-high twist. You can wear this look to a gorgeous spring brunch or outdoor lunch. This trend also gives you access to the white dress, a simple clean white dress with an unexpected cut-out or slit paired with again a neutral tone heel is a very elegant look .
So breathe in the spring air ladies, start a new page, think neutrals, think fresh, think clean, think elegant.
