The disassembly of something can be a beautiful experience. Once broken down into the basic pieces an object can be recreated, reimagined and reinvented.This process of deconstruction for discovery is where the basis of this trend lies. Somthing new evolving from the fragments of the old.

When you fully deconstruct something you strip it down to the bare basics. You are then able to better appreciate the shape, structure and materials of an object. This allows the focus to be shifted on one of these axis. Excessive material or warping the shape can create alternative outcomes from the original idea.

These stretched proportions are an example of deconstruction by changing the nature of a material or object.The ‘normal’ shape has taken on a new dimension by being blown up, in this case, or by having the structure removed in others.

In the future this trend will blend, and some aspects of the sub-trends within it will merge. One example of this is ‘fluidtiy’ and ‘beyond boundaries’. Oversized and exaggerated proportions paired with loose flowing natrual materials creates a truly unique slouch look with a smart feel. Suits made from jersey, creased high waisted linen trousers, crumpled leather bags and soft baggy suede. Think pyjama chic, in this fast paced world of ‘on demand’comfort will become key in all areas of life.

The old stereotype of feminists being ‘man haters’ and ‘butch’ has past, the new age of womens rights is embracing the reality that women can be both strong and feminine at the same time. 41.

“Every time I left the house, I would be worried if I didn’t put on makeup: What if someone wanted a picture?? What if they POSTED it??? These were the insecure, superficial, but honest thoughts I was thinking. And all of it, one way or another, was based too much on what other people thought of me.” Alicia Keys

All aspects of this trend will work beautifully for the summer season. Moving on from this, the parts that are expected to remain in focus will be the lux fabrics and nude tones. However this will have a difference, a more street style and sport influence will take over. The combination of lux materials, sports styling and nude pigments will provide a really interesting outcome which is a step up from the current ‘athleisure’ trend. It also makes for an exciting blend of feminine colours and textures with very androgynous activewear shapes.
