Catwalk Trend Winter Stripes

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Stylish stripes aren’t restricted to a nautical summer wardrobe; as a matter of fact stripes are also great for the winter months; unlike the predictable navy and white stripes, winter striped fabrics are a mixture of vibrant colours, fabric and textures.  This season we saw a return to the early 1980′s stripe mania with horizontal asymmetric metallic stripes on skirts and long jumpers or cardigans.  Stilorama Magazine’s fashion director says ” try not to overdo it by wearing too many striped fabrics at once, for best effect wear your stripes with velvet, jersey or wool.”  For more trendy catwalk news visit Britain’s most popular fashion blog.
