Classic innovation

Global fashion in 2011 will celebrate agelessness as seen in the unveiling of the collections two months ago. Almost every designer focuses on the power of attitude, not age and neither youth. After more than a decade of cult-youth obsession, the tables have turned and fashion is springing to action an understanding of a new vision of what they call intelligent fashion. The cerebral approach in pushing creativity is uncovering new territories and breaking boundaries out of the monotony. Thanks to a handful of designers who started this trend last summer, the big wave is coming in full in the season to come.

Classics take a modern spin in clean lined silhouettes and elegant cuts with an exciting play of textural allure. By doing so, designers take these wardrobe reliables back to the future.

Whether structured or unstructured, tailoring in its modernity of design has transcended the stereotypes beyond the conventional. Mod reinventions are defining the reality in fashion today. Encompassing style for women for all ages, these clear investments have a timeless appeal in up-to-date neutrals such as camels, grays and blacks. Confidence and maturity is the new cool that gives every woman a style-step ahead on what they currently call easy elegance.

There is no such thing as old fashioned these days with these reinvented staples that are definitely style forward. In this day and age, what people often don’t realize is that the importance of wearing clothes isn’t all about the clothes but the person wearing them.
