Summer Fashion 2011

This preview for the summer fashion 2011 was a representation of 80 design houses that altered the traditional views of summer fashion 2011 with concepts such as color blocking and the chain-mail technique, but history played a role as the 1970's made a comeback...
Colour blocking became more prominent and eye catching. Base colours were mainly tan and other soft colours, which were accented with neon hues and canary yellow - the colour to be present in every cupboard. Unfortunately, bright yellow does not look great on all skin colours, but if it makes you look sallow, buy a pair of canary yellow shoes or earrings instead of summer fashion 2011 clothing. This popular canary yellow colour plays an important part in recreating the Seventies' look. The loud colours, high waisted shorts, full length jumpsuits and midi skirts are being accessorised in a big way with oversized round fur earrings, big belts, sequins and patterned jewellery. Pleating and fringing flowed from the shoulder to draw attention to these body parts and you could hear the music to Xanadu playing. These colourful designs will put the wearer in a good mood throughout summer. The accessories budget will have to be increased to cope with the beautiful things to brighten the outfit.
Chain-mail is big for summer fashion 2011 and dresses and shirts are light and revealing. Layering is also essential so layer a bra with a crop top or shirt. This technique creates a sexy 'peek-a-boo' look that lets the body breathe. Fabrics such as metallic yarns looked sleek and comfortable.
Multi-fabrication and laser print techniques was used by young designers as a welcome change in the industry. The trends for spring are original and may require some shopping. Sexiness is more subtle instead of flashing cleavages and tiny shorts that were in summer fashion 2011. This season there is something for everybody and every shape. There should be no sweating in light colorful fabric that will make the wearer feel light and cool.
