Silhouettes loosened up, bellies were exposed, and harnesses aplenty...here's a look at the top 10 Spring 2013 trends.
-
Bermuda Shorts
No longer for frumpy tourists, Bermuda shorts came in chic iterations that ranged from the casual (see Rachel Zoe) to the dressy (see Vera Wang).
-
Brocade
There's nothing like a good statement piece and this season there were plenty that came in brocade. Among the most notable were brocade tops and dresses at Suno, Helmut Lang, Jill Stuart, and Badgley Mischka.
-
Crop Tops
Time to tone that belly because crop and bra tops were all over the runways. Countless designers, including Jason Wu, Rag & Bone, Richard Chai, Marc Jacobs, and Derek Lam, showed them ranging from fitted to roomy styles.
-
Drop Waist
Some of the best looks at major shows like Marc by Marc Jacobs and Prabal Gurung featured drop waist loose silhouettes. So liberating not to be cinched in with belts!
-
Harnesses
Who could have predicted that harnesses would be such a major trend? Shown last season at Herve Leger, they were all over for Spring 2013 most notably at BCBG, Jason Wu, and once again Herve Leger.
-
Long Vests
Alexander Wang, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Custo Barcelona were just a few of the brands that showed long, zipper-accented vests this season.
-
Relaxed Silhouettes
Nearly every designer showed more relaxed silhouettes this season — even Victoria Beckham.
-
Flats
While they're expected at the likes of Y-3 and Lacoste, who knew we'd see flats at shows like The Row and Victoria Beckham?
-
Leather
Leather for spring? You bet..and lots of it. Everyone from Proenza Schouler to DKNY to Charlotte Ronson showed leather-heavy Spring 2013 collections.
-
Digital Prints
In the age of Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, and Facebook what could be more fitting than digital prints? Seen on countless runways including Timo Weiland, Tibi, Prabal Gurung, and Monique Lhuillier.
