Next is 'REMIX'; this explores 'underdog' sports and niche lifestyles athletics, given a fashionable twist with Africa-meets Asia look. The trend also explores increasing trends for urban walking and cycling as commuter consumers seek to get fit, save money and become eco-friendly. The new styles draw influence from 'REMIX' with block color contrasting print, animal skin finishes and structured lines.
The strongest colors in 'REMIX' fuse contemporary African and Asian cultures through invigorating earthen tones with a rustic base of dirt brown, carbon grey and neutral putty, Energetic highlights of vibrant teal, toxic lime and coral sunrise create contrasts with wind chime grey's adding soothing, yet urban edge.
Key Trends are fringed satchel, ethnic inspired, re-worked animal print, drawstring detail, urban identity, sporty bomber jacket, leather plates and rivets, waterproof layering, tribal influences/designs blend with luxury fabrics, technical fabrics, and again retro 1950s styling.
Trends are bold color and snap, as well as low key and modern muted tones, reserved styles and technology. Resort hats are luxurious and the kid's lines are more playful than ever- with monkeys, monsters, animals and make believe characters. The cuff and slouch and stripe beanies are still very important to the market and always a must have.
