The mood for the autumn/winter trends is always more down to earth than in the spring/summer season. Since the colors used in the collections are mainly more primary then adding embellishments and prints becomes essential!
Everything comes from something that already exists! The same rule strongly works in the world of fashion. Not only I am referring here to the relationship between the runway and the high street fashion, but also to the references from where designers get influenced by art, literature and cinema! Often these areas are leading the seasonal trends! Fall 2014 though, brings on the catwalks prints, patterns and embellishments that have been taken directly from there!
As expressive as is the work from different art movements, film history and even illustrated literature, designers stunned the audience with their creativity and are being admired by their haute couture handicrafts. This upcoming season the influence was more direct and therefore bold and comprehensive!
Here is Estilo-Tendances guide on how to get influenced by film, literature and arts in fashion in Autumn/Winter 2014-2015!

There is no season, no collection that is not somewhat influenced from fine arts! As 1960’s and 1970’s trends are always coming back to the runways, then this fall, designers are directly using graphics and elements such as brushstrokes and cutouts as decorative elements and patterns for their collections! It is a creative and fun way to add some color to AW trends!
