Back to Couture Week - - Spring 2010

I had researched SS'10 Couture Week back in February and had yet to report
on some of the new and continuing trends that I found within the collections:

Highwaisted is a continuing style that has been ongoing for about two years now. Seen in both skirts and pants, the high-waisted trend is still prevelant in both Spring & Fall 2010 collections.

Metallic: an accent within garments that we have seen in the past 2 seasons is getting ever more popular. Metal influences are shown ranging from bronze, gold, silver with a weathered appearance or high-shine look.

How about that Couture Chanel gown? - to die for.

Lastly, my all-time favorite - Bodysuits: we saw a 1970s retro influence on the runways with full body suits. Some were done in a flowy and care-free style, while a straight and tailored look was also seen. Spring/Summer 2009, the romper trend was quite successful, so it only makes sense that the bodysuit will be a strong style this year.
