Versace - Spring Summer 2016 Full Fashion Show - Exclusive-new fashion
This year we took part in the premier New Zealand design event - Urbis Design Day. We worked with global trend forecaster, WGSN presenting a visual interpretation of design trends for Spring/Summer 2016.

During the event, Lyndal Wallis from WGSN presented these trends to guide your design direction with inspiration and the most up-to-date market insights.

The overarching forecast for Spring/Summer 2016 is TRANS.

The concept of 'trans' defines a brave new era of perpetual movement and transformation. Here, opposites merge into composites and design becomes a means of blending and merging in innovative and surprising ways.

In this exciting world of new possibilities and solutions, strict definitions are evolving to become more fluid, established limits are shifting and boundaries are broken. By transcending class, race and gender, a more accepting and less-judgemental world is emerging in which cultural and geographical divisions become blurred and people begin to move collectively. This moment of transition also has an impact upon time and space, blending the past and present, the cosmos and the oceans, for spring/summer 2016 – and beyond.

TRANS is then broken down into four macro trends - Soft Pop, Deep Summer, Eco Active and Past Modern
