White is the new black

That's right, white is definately the new black for this spring and summer. As mentionned by Fashion Telivisions own Jeanne Beker as well as portrayed in numerous of different designers collections such as Alexander Wang, Thakoon, Cynthia Steffe, Dolce&Gabbana, Michael Kors and many more the white trend was clearly evident. What fascinated me the most is how versatile and easy it is to wear white and I was very curious as to why some of these designers didn't simply just go over the top with patterns and prints but instead they just stuck to the whites and this ended up becoming really a big focus in their entire collection. Even though these one of a kind designers might have gone straight to minamilist styles and colours as a basis for their collection there was also a large group of designers that avoided neutral colours and explored the essence of pattern and prints which was a framework to their new collection. I love how Alexander Wang, Michael Kors and even Dolce &Gabbana explored with white because they really took it to a whole new level my mixing and matching different pieces of clothing such as the vintage maxi skirts with white blazers or even white linen trousers and even though these outfits were all white they were still wearable, sophisticaed and elegant and anyone could do that. This inspiration is so simple to acheive in that people can throw on a complete white enemble from head to toe and they will still be on trend for this spring/summer 2011. My idea?, just replace all the black clothing that you might be constantly wearing out all the time with white clothing that way you will be able to acheive a polished more refined look while still keeping on trend.
