TRANSLUCENT ATTIRE: CREOLE LADY MARMALADE
Transparency is now more important than ever in these political times of collusion. And if you didn’t know already you heard it hear first: fashion reflects the state and needs of society. We need transparency, so we give you the gelatin dress! From Sandy Liang’s iconic jelly flower tee, reminding us of baby boomers’ protest on the Vietnam War, to a Neaveau-Millennial budget conscientious Bamboo see through heel, you’ll see this not-so-there trend grace the runway and your local department store.

Tattoo graphic art: americana ink
Dedicated to our late friend, ally, and talented tattoo artist, The Honest Tattooer, Chris Steffes (1988-2019)
You don’t have to get inked to commit! The dreaded butt of the joke, Ed Hardy, may be a joke no more, but the original influencer of this hot new trend. From Gucci to Valentino you see these Italiano high-fashion brands sport Neo-style tattoo graphics on their bomber jackets, lace trim jumpers, even on their high-end design home collections. Minimalist textiles— a thing of the past. Designers fast to high fashion will all be including tattoo influenced embroidery or patchwork in their must-haves into next year.

BELTED ACCENTS: BUCKLE UP
Model: Natalie Schmidt, Founder & Creator of AS IS Editorial and the first #asisbabe
Do you want to add a little extra to your look, try adding an overextended belt (not to be confused with an oversized belt). This trend adds an extra dimension to your jumpsuit fit or even a white tee and jeans. Not a fan of this lonnngggg statement, it’s not just extra long belts that you’ll see this buckle up trend embrace. You will find built-in more modest belted accents on purses, boots, jewelry, and tops.
