The summer was floral, dynamic, freely and ... short. Yes, the autumn knocks at the door and together with it the old dilemma – what we have in the wardrobe and what we want to have... To find your way more easily in this labyrinth of colors, materials and cuts we present you the most actual tendencies for the season autumn-winter 2008-2009. One fast view to the fashion-shows of the world fashion houses will give you the principal “weapons” you need to be in step with the fashion.

If during the last season the designers presented the woman as a creative and refined being that loves the art and the amusements, filled with color and wrapped in soft materials, in this season she changes with real fashion armor, decorated with impressive architectural shapes that could be hardly rest unnoticed. The image that is achieved is extremely strong, almost frightening. The new role of the woman is to impress and for this reason the designers reconsidered and used again all of the principal elements of the wardrobe of the 80s (enormous shoulders at “Fendi”, masculine costumes at Karl Lagerfeld, strict costumes at ”Prada”). The efforts of the designers to find fashionable, working uniforms provoked the advent of a new „secretary” appearance. It is achieved through strict costumes or shirts, combined with skirts, where the sharp outlines softens from soft materials (silk shirts) or thick lace.

In this season you won’t wrong if you combine muted, but not aggressive colors - tile, grey, autumn brown, with bright tones as lemon, coral red and lilac. Especially actual is to choose tick tights in playful nuance, combined with thick belt on sweater – why not? When you are hesitating how exactly to combine the colors – look around you – the nature had made it long time ago before you – green and brown, red and yellow... the combinations are endless. You can choose a floral motive, to combine it with one-color coat and black shoes or to be much braver and to give your self to warm summer memories with combinations of lilac, yellow and red.

The materials are various - wool, cashmere, leather, plumes, elastic synthetic materials. It is possible the combination of sheer dress and thick woolen jacket, or finer skirt with thick sweater. For the admirers of the sportive clothing the cotton and the jersey are obligatory.

The cuts of the clothes follow the tendency of the big volumes – the so-called “oversize”. We see „the over volume” everywhere - pockets, trousers, enormous shawls, covering almost the whole fore-part of the top garment. The coats are with several sizes bigger and fall freely. This was instruction number 1... Number 2 is SHOPPING!
