We know what you're thinking. "Fall? Already? But didn't summer just start?" Don't worry, we are having the same thoughts. We're still in the heat of summer, but the fashion industry is always a season or two ahead. Nonetheless, our favorite Pacific Northwest newspaper, The Seattle Times, recently published an article detailing some of the hottest fashion trends for Fall 2007. According to The Seattle Times staff reporter Pamela Sitt, this fall's fashion reveals bold colors and a feminine fit.
Pamela Sitt describes fashion as "fickle creature," at least that's what she witnessed at Wednesday's Nordstom fall fashion preview. Additionally, Sitt brings all of our fashion fears to fruition when she hypothesizes on the 80s influence seen in fall 2007 fashion. Among the designers being represented on the catwalk were popular brands including Chanel, Prada, Christian Dior, Gucci, Stella McCartney and Dolce & Gabbana just to name a few.
Perhaps, in our opinion at least, styles from Marc Jacobs were among the most interesting. Probably because of their 80s influence, coupled with the functionality and form seen in the styles of today. All that said, everything we hear now about fall fashion trends is still speculation; that is until the fashion lines hit the shelves in late August/early September.
