    And we thought we knew where the universe ended.

    EDIT: This would explain the recent leopard print craze. Looks like a job for Will Smith.

      Hirakawa is correct. Many trends originate with Premiere Vision.

        and as i said, promostyl and the other scammers run conferences/seminars at première vision and present their trendbooks and other crap to the fiber- and textile producers there. these trend forecasting agencies are the spawn of satan...

        (btw, wouldn't be surprised if they lurk sz each and every day to suck our knowledge and styles. so if anyone from those companies is reading this, allow me to be the first to tell you to FUCK OFF.)

          It's amusing...when they announced the "colour of the year"...that hideous barfy pink thing...you literally saw it the next day in shop windows at stores like Club Monaco and H&M in both men's and women's clothing.

              This isn't particularly a phrase, but my most hated word is definitely 'trendy'. The moment that word is mentioned I just have a mind explosion. Everytime.

                    Amen to that. Since when was black even the widespread worn colour of standard (...in terms of modern dressing, I don't want to get into 19th Century gents and all that)?

                        a pet peeve of mine is when people say something "will be huge this season" or "the it color this season". i heard someone describe teal nail polish in both ways.

                        also can someone shed some light on when "the new black" came into commonplace use? whenever i hear "the new black" all i can think of is the black-clad japanese minimalists of the 80's.

                          If I have to hear another gay man telling me about his mother I'll go ballistic. Sexual orientation should not be an uncontrollable urge to become a cliché.

                              'chic' is probably my most hated fashion journalism word. Generally speaking, whenever it's used it's safe to assume the writer has absolutely no idea.
