Summertime Sadness.

It looks as though the dark platte of autumn and winter trends is carrying through to the summer. Though a transition has been made from block fabrics to sheer, flowing materials, bringing a softer and lighter form into this season. Though such a monochromatic trend could potentially lead us to a mundane summer of darkness, designers are playing with textures to keep interest, while basic accessories and shoes compliment the extravagant detailing.

The textures and embellishment of the skirt with gold detailing
give the skirt a more delicate appearance.

























The three dresses above are from the Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer collection. You can see the sheer materials and the variation of shapes and styles that really express the trends for summer, such as the metallic detailing.
Simplistic accessories like this compliment the busy outfits.
This is an old picture from 2009, it just shows that black is back.
