Stripes back for SS/11

Autumn and Winter for 2011 boasted with animal prints , however showcased at Milan Fahion week, was a entourage of stripes on the runway for this Spring and Summer 2011. Some of the best examples of seaside stripes, retrograde stripes, and geometrical stripes were presented for the ss/11 trends.

Even though the runway was belting with stripes everywhere, I had to pick some my favourite stripy faves in the up and coming trend for ss/11.

The Animal print has been a strong trend for Autumn/Winter seasons since 2008. This feisty feline trend has been pinned down by some of the greatest designers this AW 2010. Jimmy Choo turned its focus to Leopard Prints this fall and have created bold yet elegant designs to dress up any day or evening style. The secret of wearing an animal based pattern fashion trend successfully would be to mildly accessories with it, which means not over do the print, but to keep it chic and minimal.
