Chris Craymer for The New York Times
Stephanie Solomon the fashion director of Lord & Taylor forecasted what’s in for the Spring Fashion and said: “Your tights, throw them out,” she urged. “Get rid of your hats, your scarves, but most of all those hose. You never want to see them again.”
Prepare yourself for the trendy spring fashion such as the Calf-grazing skirts; cropped, arc-shouldered tops that just meet the high-rise waistlines of pants or skirts; and trousers so fluid they ripple. Just as high on their lists: zesty neoprene or mesh. An excessive color of flowers: an abundant reflection of spring.
Keep it in your mind that this season’s fashion is about the color, if you don’t like flowers you can also go to watercolors but “You cannot talk about the season without talking about the floral printed dress,” said Beth Buccini, a partner, with Sarah Easley, in Kirna Zabête, the SoHo outpost for adventurous design. Ms. Easley was no less effusive, adding, “We’re seeing a garden explosion of florals in a thousand variations.” Like leopard and cheetah prints before them, florals have become so pervasive in the marketplace, she added, that they are poised to become “the new summer neutrals.”
So don’t be surprised to see Poppies and peonies, daffodils and daisies and a gaudy profusion of hothouse blooms have overtaken selling floors at Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s. It will be Garden fresh because pulsing color and eye-catching florals are going to bloom around you this season.
