Color Trend: NEON LEMON
Winter 2012 collections abound in brighter hues like Neon Lemon & Tangerine Coral, crimson, neon orange, purple, sky blue and others.
Christian Dior, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana.
Hot Trend: FUR
As with sweaters, fur is the perfect material for winter. And it looks chic, too. But with the severe struggle to protect animals, designers have become wiser and started using more faux fur than genuine one. One more interesting tendency to note – designers make real fur look like fake and fake fur look like genuine.
Loewe, Gucci, Michael Kors, Burberry Prorsum, Gucci.
