Holiday 2016 swipes the palette clean with fresh and exciting items. Shine and velvet take center stage once again while trims and piecing feel right. Casual undertones throughout are paramount.
Getting Fancy
Stretch Out
In femme tops and camis: lace, burnout velvet and shine trims add newness to these items. Off-shoulders and cold-shoulders remain as key silhouettes and we love embellishments, embroidery, and all neck details including chokers, tie necks.
Denim must move, every direction and all the time. Don’t forget color here too, black is a must while embellishments add a freshness.
Take Cover
Casual knits in both bottoms, sweatshirts, and tees continue to be the base of her wardrobe. Texture is key and softness matters.
Jackets are still leading our must-have list. Bombers, motos and anoraks still remain very important. Sherpa is a must.
Keeping Cozy Whether making a statement with a holiday pullover, or a chunky cardigan, soft, fuzzy yarns, lighter weights and new yarn textures evoke newness for the season.
Colors
Getting Dressed The dress remains essential for her party attire, lace continues as do sets while neck and back details keep it fresh. Slip dresses, rompers, modified babydolls, and easy waist dresses are key silhouettes.
