Thought it would be fun if rather than just listing what we are looking forward to, we could make predictions about what's coming up. So write either what you think we'll see or what you would like tosee in the coming January fashion shows. Whoever is most accurate gets a prize!
I'll start with a couple:
JIl Sander: OK, this one is easy, it's obvious the slow evolution Raf is trying to create at JS. Since the S/S 07 show was so colorful, I think he'll incorporate some shots of color into the next show like vibrant red which JS has used in the past and deep electric blues. He's going to have to change the silhouette since the last two shows were so similar. Maybe the pants will widen up and the tops will get more fitted. I think the general silhouette will stay on the boxy/geometric side though. The knits and fabric use will continue to be the standouts.
Dior Homme: I'm predicting this will beHedi'slast Dior show. His shows seem to go in pairs with F/W kicking it offso I expect something different. I hope he uses some color again, I thought his use of colorfrom SS 04 to F/W05 was nice, but the last two collection have been nothing but black, white and beige (ok silver too).Of course there will still be plenty of skinny suits and tailored clothes and I expect he will continue to leave jeans out of the show entirely. In thecurrent season and SS 07 he's been goingin a less wearable/commercial direction andthis will continue for the next show. Especially if it's his last, he doesn't care if it will sell or not. I expect the usual tricks with cutting up blazers in different ways. I'm trying to think of a specific overall look but nothing's coming to me. I want to make one really specific prediction just incase it comes true, I'll try to post later.
That's all for now,there are many other shows I'm anticipating but I'll wait to post about them.
