2009 Spring Summer Color Trends

Are you curious what colors will be "IN" in 2009?
Here are the main color trends you'll be shopping for the summer!

Black & White
The monochrome color combination is a classic, sophisticated but certainly not sober and stiff. In the Moschino ready-to-wear collection you can find blithe and fanciful Harlequin inspired outfits.
Keep an eye on tailored short jackets and cropped black trousers - these will be must-have items in the new season!

Pretty Pastels
Fashion designers are proposing romantic and feminine pastels for the upcoming season. You can expect to see a lot of pastel pink all over the place this spring replacing nudes and beige, with the same feminine, delicate shapes and cuts.

Tropical Paradise
Truly rich tones that reflect exotic wildlife or the tropical rain forest, aqua blues and jade greens underline the brightness of the glam of the new season. Get inspiration from Gucci, gorgeous at Balmain, Roberto Cavalli and Zac Posen also played with it. The best thing about this color trend that you can't pass unnoticed while wearing it!

Cartoon Magic
You can't stay sad and pensive when wearing colorful outfits and you'll surely enthuse others and lift their spirits. Cartoon characters and other animation references in saturated bright colors from electric blues, magentas, orange and purples to twist with colored grays and classics.
