Continuity
Autumn/Winter 2015-16 Fredericks Forescast Services
Reality is no longer a single narrative, expect the world to be transformed in ways in which have only started to be imagined. The exploration and opening of a new world full of visuals that can be appropriate for new interpretations and a sense of self-ruled luxury.

ANOMALY Creating a pathway through modern science and technology. Will allow us the opportunity to venture into a secret visual world that once was only a fantasy but is now a reality, giving us practical options for changing lifestyles.
NUANCE Celebrates the uniqueness of regional cultures and of the communities that shape them. It revels in the stylistic and behavioral norms that sum up these cultures today and shares them with a world seeking a visual aesthetic that is more real and in tune with modern lives.
INVERT
Delving into everything that makes reality today: the new and the not so new, the harshly ugly and the achingly beautiful. It fuses them together in new ways to create a visual context for the season.
Set aside your preconceptions about the present and the recent past, and restore them with a fresh way of looking at the world. Be real, non-linear, and see beauty in the seemingly undesirable.
INTEMPERANCE Crafting a new luxury, within the parallels of nature, inspiring a universal perspective, we combine sustainability with the mystical world and a twist on the art of hedonism.
NEUTRALITY
Temperate; are the new radicals, with a new sense of spirituality and taking the middle ground that becomes the most progressive choice in a world of exaggerated overstatement and extremes. Becoming a new minimalism.
