English Version | Mother Nature: In Vogue Trends

Dark lips, pale face

It's the color of the moment, the chicest of the entire chromatic palette, the most sought-after on all the trend indexes. Some say that “brown is the new black” and, if the craze continues, we may have found a new obsession. Seen in Saint Lauren, Hermès, Alaïa, among others, it is the height of elegance and screams “sophistication” in all materials and textures. Is there anything else you need to embrace chocolate?

The great outdoors

It's not exactly news that the beauty, diversity and power of nature has long been one of the main sources of inspiration for many designers. This spring/summer, however, is particularly rich in colors, textures, shapes and patterns from the natural world, which reflect a growing respect for the environment - and an increasingly firm awareness that, without it, we are nothing.

Lady-like

The (announced) return of feminine chic means a return to slit skirts, bow blouses and pronounced buttons, peplums and vertiginous heels; it means taking on femininity in all its forms, just like in the golden years of Hollywood, when glamour was just as important, if not more important, than comfort. For more up-to-date inspiration, watch Mad Men or take a look at Lady Di's street style images.
