Spring/Summer 2011: Yo ho ho and a Couple of Stripes

The nautical trend gets a mention every summer; it’s understandable, after all what spells summer more than sailing, boats and sea. This year however, its got more than just a mention and is actually a big trend this summer. Think lots of big bold stripes, both diagonal and vertical in lots of different colours, especially blue and red; the traditional smaller stripes are also ‘in’ this year but be adventurous, go for something a bit bold and different.

The catwalks had some interesting inspiration last September:

Moschino SS 2011
Marc Jacobs SS 2011
Jill Sanders SS 2011

An important thing to bear in mind when working this trend is to not overdo it. You don’t want to avoid looking like you’re dressed in a sailor’s costume. An interesting take on the summer trends is to mix the nautical and polka trends together.
