Then vs Now: 80's

The 1980's were bold and bright. Fishnets, shoulder pads and vibrant patterns were some of the iconic trends of the decade. Here are some Spring/Summer 18 looks that give off an 80's vibe.

THEN VS NOW: 70's

The 1970's were a time of rich textures and bright colors. Shift dresses, flared jeans and bell sleeves were the epitome of the hippie decade. Here are some Spring/Summer 2018 looks that reflect the boho-esque trends of the 70's. 

Then vs now: 60's

The 60's were a time known for high waisted silhouettes, colorful prints, and breaking fashion traditions. Hemlines became shorter and women's clothing became less matronly. Here are some Spring/Summer 2018 looks that bring back the styles of the 60s.

Designers gain inspiration from natural elements quite often. From Chanel's waterfall skirt to Oscar de la Renta's gradient night sky tulle, these looks all mirror a piece of nature. 

Paris Fashion Week

Paris Fashion week has come to an end and we've collected all of the common trends that ruled the runway. Here are the looks from Paris that incorporated similar components. 

LEATHER- Many designers used leather to create sleek looks and unique statement pieces such as a pencil skirt, jumpsuit, trench coat, lace up pants, and high-waisted shorts. 

LONG & FLOWY- These looks flowed down the runway. Designers used romantic silks and chiffons to create effortless fluid movement. 

RUFFLED TEXTURES- While tulle has been a prominent element during Fashion Week 2017, designers also used ruffles and textures to add voluminous dimension to their creations.

EXAGGERATED PANT SUITS- Here we see how designers transformed pant suits with exaggerated elements.  Akris used oversized appliqués, Alexander McQueen executed oversized shoulders, Givenchy showcased a cinched waist, Balmain incorporated bold and contrasting prints and John Galliano applied many different design aspects including pleats, ruffles, and a longline blazer.

NYFW Wrap Up: Tons of Tulle

Throughout NYFW there was one trend we kept seeing, tulle. Some designers conceived simple looks while others went for more voluminous creations, like the ombre Oscar de la Renta. Tulle will definitely be a staple for Spring/Summer 2018.

NYFW Day 8: Colors of the Runway

Designers highlighted their collections with bright hues on the last day of NYFW. Starting with a vibrant red from Bonnie Young and ending with a pastel pink from Delpozo, we saw the colors of the rainbow, and beyond, on day 8. The styles varied greatly, but they all brought color to the runway. 

NYFW Day 7: Glamorous Gowns

There have been quite a few couture gowns featured on the runway the last couple of days. On Day 7, we saw some amazingly crafted dresses that are nothing short of perfection. The heavy beading and embellishment on these pieces make them show stoppers. While tulle has been a prominent trend this past week, these designers created elegant gowns with sleek silhouettes. 

NYFW Day 6: A Pop of Color

On day 6 (and a bit of day 2) of NYFW we saw similar design elements on different silhouettes and runways. However, the application of the designs were unique for each designer. Oscar de la Renta added a multicolor paint splatter, Carolina Herrera incorporated an abstract confetti-like design, Neubyrne used colorful paillettes and Rosie Assoulin arranged a rainbow of sea shells across her canvas.

NYFW Day 5: Breaking Barriers

Prabal Gurung is known for his political statements during fashion week. In past shows, he has demonstrated his support for women's rights. Yesterday, he did just that by including models of every shape, size and color. Sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid walked the runway along with plus size and transgender models. By using such diversified women, Gurung is truly breaking down barriers on the runway. 

NYFW Day 4: Matching Sets

Two piece outfits are a dream come true when trying to coordinate an outfit. While I do not care for matching pajama type sets, structured styles give a smart, stylish look. These matching sets are all fresh and modern. It's a look that many celebrities have been wearing and definitely a look that will carry through Spring/Summer 2018. 

NYFW Day 3: Bold Stripes

NYFW Day 3 brought us bold looks featuring stripes. Designers showcased their patterns in different directions, colors and sizes. Whether the stripes are vertical, horizontal, asymmetrical, or every which way, they'll be a hit for Spring/Summer 2018.
