Spotting Fashion Week Trends Makes Buying Wholesale Fashion Apparel Fun
Ah… Fashion Week in New York City, the quintessential place to “see and be seen”. This annual event is when a sea of beautiful people descends on Bryant Park, representing some of the most influential trendsetters in the world of fashion. Runway models don the latest creations of young designers like Alex Wang, Jason Wu and Derek Lam, as well as the industry standards like Oscar de la Renta, Donna Karan and Diane Von Furstenberg.
This year, the overarching trends include a re-imagined sweatshirt, ranging in style from a sexy Henley to a jaunty romper. Fashion editors from around the world loved the new looks shown last week under the tents of Bryant Park. In keeping with the sportswear theme, the new “pant” is actually shorts, like the cuffed versions shown by Rag & Bone, or the quilted leather numbers by Wang.
Even though fall is just beginning in New York, the fashions shown are all about spring. And the young fashion darlings are taking their sporty themes very seriously.
Varsity ensembles, utilitarian khaki, and a gorgeous leather cognac jacket were some of the fresh looks presented by Alex Wang. Derek Lam’s creations referred to summery spots like Rehobeth Beach, Asbury Park and Key West, with sequined skirts, hologram print dresses, and luxe shorts. And Joseph Altuzarra delivered a host of playful new looks that incorporated leather and suede with Swiss dot fabric.
Of course, the usual trendy junior fashion speculators were on hand as well, making notes and taking pictures to start creating a new crop of off-price versions of these new looks. These looks will surely make their way into retailers sometime in late 2010.
When you buy wholesale fashion apparel for next season, look for inexpensive ways to capitalize on these Fashion Week trends. Even the younger set will start to see a selection of these sporty looks in wholesale junior apparel.
