    S/S 16 WOMEN'S ACCESSORIES TREND STORIES - EDITORS' TOP PICK    

Commune addresses a deeper appreciation of world cultures through artisan crafts. The Commune woman composes various ethnic references in a sophisticated manner that ultimately speaks to luxury. She travels the world for inspiration not only for aesthetic purposes, but to gain a greater understanding of global economies. Immersed in foreign cultures, she takes pride in meeting with local craftsman and fostering their crafts. When the Commune woman returns home she takes not only physical souvenirs with her, but stories of the people she has met along the journey. Her palette is earthy with punches of cherry and daffodil. An eclectic materials complement her style with exotic skins, jacquards and hand loomed knits. Intricate details continue this feeling with grommets, patent patchwork and embroidery & embellishments.

    S/S 16 WOMEN ACTIVE FORECASTS    

We kick off the Spring 2016 forecasts with Vertigo, dizzying visuals and good vibes in a delirious mashup, topped off with a sweet and sassy attitude. Retro shapes inspired by 60’s kitsch swimwear get modernized by mixed media materials, while playful, overtly flirty details get slapped with snarky message graphics. 

Seaside inspiration comes from beach bunnies galore. With cheeky and nostalgic surf style shapes like foamy high-waisted bottoms and flirty bras dominating key items and hazy cotton candy hues clashing with poppy watermelon and cherry red.

1. Bad gals
2. Airbrushing
3. Nostalgic neon
4. Sweet and Sassy
5. Apathy
6, 7. Tattooed and Tweaked Icons

MUD is movement under distress. For our third active forecast this season, we focus on the primal state of stability within extreme conditions deriving from baja racing, beach volleyball and mudder races. A fusion of dry environments and sweat.

Dirt and mud terrains of mining camps, outdoors trails, mudder obstacles, canyons and ancient cemeteries create a perspective of moving forms that prove to be more than a landscape but the natural strokes of a living man made artist expression. The depth of color, organic movement of shapes and macro level functionality that it generates all can be translated into design features that coexist with the warrior spirit and articulation.

1. Letter intergrated net print
2. Atlas map
3. Thermal heat
4. Tough letter logo / wrap around print
5. Peel away beauty
6. Rock mosaic
7. Fingerpaint warrior

    S/S 16 MEN ACTIVE FORECASTS    

Kicking off the active Spring / Summer 2016 season, Open Mind sparks the excitement of creativity, the vibrancy of personality and the quirky fun injected into a sporty lifestyle. Young, involved, interested and intoxicating, this guy is active in expressing his imagination and excited to see where it takes him.

Imagine if you were free to just explore the world and uncover all of the folk richness that history had expressed. Then apply your spin on patterns, colors, perspective, shapes and significance to your own art form — and that is what Open Mind is all about: collaborating with culture to express the future of art.

PATTERN (clockwise from top left):
1. Iridescent
2. Urban Word Puzzle
3. Triangle Code

MUD is movement under distress. For our third active forecast this season, we focus on the primal state of stability within extreme conditions deriving from baja racing, Laamb wrestling and mudder races. A fusion of dry environments and sweat. Unearthing natural terrain from by high levels of consistent performance, the MUD athlete shows no mercy to his environment as he pushes him mental and physical capabilities to the max.

Warrior is all about outfitting focused aggression. Fabrics need to be rugged and durable enough to sustain large amounts of sporadic impact, frequent influx / de-flux of temperatures and act as the fundamental layer of enhancing and protecting movement. Brute natural force evokes a inner strength that needs to be focused for a particular goal and once that goal is identified, then the apparel can be modified for optimum results.

PATTERNS (clockwise from top left):
1. Letter integrated net print
2. Atlas map
3. Rock Mosaic
4. Tribal Stripes
5. Stenciled geo pattern over distressed print
6. Micro mud streams
7. Jagged shape shifting
8. Tread zones
