Fashion Trends 2006
Some of the most beautifully crafted, feminine clothing made there way onto the catwalks for S/S 2006.

As trends go,
white made a mesmerizing return at Celine (right), attributable to their new creative director Ivana Omazic who is already making positive waves at the label. For lifestyles that crave style without the effort Stella McCartney's shirt dress and all-in-one suits infused the imaginations of the more edgier high street chains who have snapped up the look to make it a part of their new season's offering. Shoes come elegantly stacked or "platformed" at Scorah Pattullo providing a versatile, yet comfortable finish to shorts, skirts or cropped trousers. Belts like Ginger & Smarts below no longer hug the hips but have gravitated upward, toward the waist to yield a cinched look that accentuates curves. Trench coats (always a good wardrobe staple to have now that global warming has caused unpredictable weather conditions) have been "prettified" with either bows (as seen at Diane Von Furstenberg), large collars, fluted sleeves for an updated look that can be dressed up or down. City shorts that surprising proliferated through the high street last year have returned again but this time has brought along her sassier, fearless sister who comes shorter and in the case of Alexander McQueen, in Gold. Celine sets the trend again but this time, the attention is turned to accessories which sees large, long crocodile beads/necklaces loosely adorned on clothing. Medium sized bags are just not big enough any more. Instead, bags like the one pictured below at Betty Jackson come supersized and practically fit everything inside. Anna Sui has some of the most pretty summer dresses to have ever graced the catwalk for a long time. Well worth checking out. Stripe tops (as seen at Topshop for nautical inspired looks) polka dot blouses and dresses, cropped jackets, Sienna Miller like medallions (now to be found at John Lewis) and the runaway success of Roland Mouret's Galaxy dress (that has launched high street equivalents like Marks & Spencers) make for a heady mix from which to draw inspiration from. Enjoy!
