The less than pristine economy brought a sense of trend continuation from Fall '09 to Fall '10 runway looks. Nothing seemed to be completely rewritten but more repurposed. The biggest trend I saw was tons of crazy layers motivating me to experiment with what I have for Fall '10 versus buying all new. That is a nice break on our economy hit pocketbooks.
Here are a couple other big picture trends I either saw or read about on the runway:
- Furs and shearing (I am still vowing to go faux)
- Booties with bling
- Ethnic patterns and inspiration
- Ruffles and draping
- Full skirts
- Thigh highs and tights
- Belted layers
- Historically inspired hats
- Luxe fabrics like velvet, sequins and shiny materials
- Pleated and tapered dress pants circa 1980s
