Trends spotted at Mode City & Interfilière Paris, July 2015 Made exclusively available to Kukka newsletter subscribers
FOREWORD On Monday 6th of July I visited Mode City & Interfilière Paris where nearly 280 exhibitors presented a cutting edge, aesthetic and innovative range of products for intimates, beachwear and performance.
A /W 2 0 1 6 -2 0 1 7 // S /S 2 0 1 7
Jennifer Wigham of trend forecasting agency Concepts Paris presented us the main trend directions during the 1,5 hour trend presentation.
The General Forum was dedicated to the latest trends for the Autumn/Winter 16-17 season. The four main trends are: # Enchanted # Charmed # Liberated # Empowered
The Momenti di Passione area presented a sneak preview of trends for summer 2017 containing the following key elements: the 1960s, traditional crafts, festivals, gardens, horticulture and art. In this trend report I have combined the trends for A/W 2016-2017 and Summer 2017 which I spotted at Mode City & Interfilière Paris, July 2015. I hope you enjoy them!
1. ENCHANTED
megatrend #1
A /W 2 0 1 6 -2 0 1 7 // S /S 2 0 1 7
Enchanted is a spectacular and festive option enlivened with
accents of fairy tale, ideal for surface decoration and romantic patterns, which was inspired by winter forests with their amazing light nuances.
Colours come from deep in the earth’s crust with its wonderful hues and go all the way to the cosmos. Expect autumnal motifs and organic patterns. Colours include sweet chestnut, orchid, frost and chocolate. # Harvest Red
# Fairytale Winter

2. CHARMED
megatrend #2
A /W 2 0 1 6 -2 0 1 7 // S /S 2 0 1 7
The Charmed theme represents a transition from summer to
winter. This theme features essential small scale patterns, leafy embroideries and prints of birds and butterflies. Take a look at
giant blossoms and collages with flowers, birds and insects and fabulous fruit motifs.
Fabrics are dyed in cool shades of blue. We’ll see a revisit
of Central European folk art with delightful inspirations for embroideries and prints and colours that pop. # The sound of music # Red & pink

3. LIBERATED
megatrend #3
A /W 2 0 1 6 -2 0 1 7 // S /S 2 0 1 7
Liberated offers another way to look at lingerie. Beyond the
obvious inspirations for lace and other lingerie classics, this
is about lingerie in the context of the modern multifunctional
wardrobe anchored in urban cultures, with influences ranging from art to sport.
Urban design vibrations for active lifestyles that move from
the gym to the park and back. Geometric prints are inspired by Scandinavia, the 1960s, and modern art. # Cubism
