Autumn - winter 2009 - 2010 fashion comes with the slogan "New Quality Value"

Fashion focuses on high quality. Everything centres on cutting techniques and premium materials, from tailoring to knitting, including furs and accessories.

A factual overall picture comes back into fashion, expressed by a variety of stylistic elements. Architecture gives strong impulses, creating designs with a “sculptural” silhouette. Dominating effects are clay optics and relief-like surfaces. Imaginative prints and opal-shine contrasts create tension. Masculine shapes establish themselves. Metallic aspects and leather are becoming substantial stylistic elements. Colours express extroverted modernity. Unusual shades and colour harmonies create individuality and personality. Black has a comeback – white lights up the generally dark colour palette – gold beige promises to become a hit – intense pastels add an artful effect.

Abstract flash

An extroverted fashion trend where the color is the leading actor.
color: the palette of shades shows a lot of intensive colors. Exceptional notes and color harmonies arise by individuality and personality. It is about fantastic color stories. 

structure: the stitch plays with 3D-reliefs, draperies, asymmetries, graphical motives and bands where the colors get an intensive life.

The dark tones will be knitted in burning out optic, marcel structure, in plait or braid pattern, in lace or mix of different yarns and structures.

The minimized forming will be pointed out with hood sleeves, puff sleeves, shiny decorations, belts and zips.

Glam Factor

A trend which shows understatement.

color: black, cold winter white, dark color tones as ebony wood or plump combined with powdery beige.

structure: here you can see simplicity, cleanness and finesse. The styling is very important for that trend because the styling shows if the look is up to date. This trend includes skirts, boots with line bootlegs or pumps, loose exposed pants and bags in pouch or bowl form. After a long time of vanish and shine now blunt qualities are interesting. There are a lot of blunt shiny materials.
