Street Trends

Fashion has a particualr cyle, so we can see street trends( or street fashion) are alwasys changing. Streets are also an interesting place where designers can get some paritcular inspirations. In my point of view, in this year, the most influential trend is the minitary style. The military influence seems to be ubiquitous from 2010 spring runway show to the streets in New york, London, Tokyo, etc. Hence, there is no doubt that military style is the most massive of the fall/winter trends. There are some key elements we have to catch in the trend. First of all, the mainstream color is army green, and the next is navy blue. Second, the key looks are army and aviator. About this style, there are a lot of ways to interpret it. The masculine cuts with fitted feminine styles are really stylish and chic on the streets. Also, this trend is easy to match with other clothes in our wardrobe in this year.

Actually, designers always pay attention to the military style and get inspiration on the streets. They never forgot this style, and they just tried to create some new ideas for this style. Before 2010, designers also had some great ideas about this style. The photo showed a series of fabulous military looks from Temperley, Ralph Lauren, Alexander McQueen, Derek Lam, and Collette Dinnigan in 2009. On the runway shows, we can see some gold detailing and ornate trims with military cuts. In 2009, we might guess the military style would come back again.

Indeed, this year we can really find one of the most important trends in 2010 spring runway shows is the military style. Military style is coming! Moreover, we can see the looks are very elegant and feminine to change the impression of military in the past. It is a little different from the style in 2009, and these brands or designers seem to get more ideas from street fashion.

Let's see more great looks on the streets this year. As we know, the military style is easy to match with our clothes, and it just makes our styles have more variations or create different looks with others on the streets, so it could be a military accessories with camouflage prints, strappy shoes, aviator caps or a military style jacket.

Finally, I just want to share a very short vedio. It is "HOGAN - VIDEO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN FALL WINTER 2011", and Olivia Palermo shows a nice military style in this vedio.
