Spring 2010
The coldest month of the year may be upon us, but we do have a light at the end of the tunnel. Instead of trekking through the snow to get there we can get there in a lighter more fashionable way. The spring 2010 season, however, will not be an extravagant one. Phillip Lim quotes he will be "recasting basics", meaning over the top and costume like garments are just not what people want and what artists are aspiring to make. Going along with the back to basic business like look, Lim was also inspired by a visit to the Picasso: Mosqueteros show @ the Gagosian. The rock-chic vibe from the past few seasons won't be totally lost, but rather incorporated into a new look that is fresh and well basic. For the past few seasons or even years the military look has been incorporated in fashion, alluding to our economic crisis and times of war that face us. This look is still incorporated in fashion, but instead of leaning towards old fashion and over the top Dior like garments, the industry has leaned towards more clean cut. This all may sound boring but it is refreshing, and something we haven't seen in quite a while. Not everything is so basic either, some of these looks are shown in neon and other bright colors!
