I clicked through every single fashion show and presentation of New York Fashion Week for Spring 2012. And, along the way I started noticing a few trends and themes, and as the weather turned colder in DC, again I began to long for longer days, tanner skin, and shorts.
I have divided up all the themes into three segments, trends based on color (love!), trends based on patterns and prints (love, love!), trends based on pieces (love x 3!).
Let’s not waste another minute.
Chambray Wishes: While this is technically a fabric, the color appeared multiple times throughout the runway shows. The look is sun washed, casual and in these applications a bit worn in, for an easy, breezy spring.

Yellow + Gray: This color combination was EVERYWHERE on the runway, in casual looks and evening styles. The yellow this season is a softened lemon or saturated gold, and richer than previous seasons neon. The yellows are contrasted with washed out grays, charcoals and black.

Sorbet Ice: The spring runway was also print filled and so the assortment of sorbet colored pieces was a palette cleanser. The freshness of color was light, clean and icy bright, without ever feeling cold or sterile.

Greige Goddess: This is more of a muted combination of colors, but the Greige Goddess look was in full effect on the Spring runways. Featuring gathered and draped fabric, gentle sheen, and the muted tones of beige with hints of metallic woven through.

More trends coming soon! But first, do any of these make you excited for Spring 2012?
