WHAT TO WEAR: ANIMAL PRINT & NEON
TWO POLARITIES PERFECTLY MASHED UP STANLEY PIERRE-ETIENNE @stanleypierretienne Style Contributor
STYLE
F
all is undeniably the most fashionable season. Because we need to cover ourselves, we do it in style; we dress in dramatic outerwear in dark tones and colors, in fur and chic coats. That will never change. What is changing right now and what we noticed for this upcoming fall-winter season is the way we are advised to do fall. The biggest trends for fall 2019 invite us to try new ways to be stylish. Not only when it comes to color trends, but also, and perhaps most surprisingly, when it comes to traditional fabrics and textures that we normally use for winter. Animal print will never be the same after how it was presented in these fall collections. Of course, whenever we say fall, we see animal prints of brown, khaki, and cream, but this is the first time we’ve seen animal print in those traditional shades with a profusion of options from major fashion houses. The most unexpected colors were worked into animal print; from vibrant greens, reds and yellows to navy blues, pinks and even lavender. We even saw some tie-dyed t-shirts in different shades of animal print.
