FASHION FORECAST

SPRING/SUMMER 2014

Next Nature celebrates the visual exuberance and lush organic appeal of the wild,
looking at how plant life informs shape, surface and graphics. Dark couture-like
creations borrow fluid forms and overgrown embellishments from flowers and
foliage, as tropical eveningwear - defined by its phosphorescent colours and
intense patterns - emerges from a midnight jungle. Party energy carries over into
exotic florals and carefree beach styling. Botanical prints, mottled finishes and a
humble yet refined casualwear mood reflect the relaxed quality of urban gardens.
