Black & White A Classically dramatic palette lends impact to the simplest forms.

URBAN HOMESTEAD Rural simplicity and natural materials meet urban style, combining country and concrete in a look that allows these two divergent aesthetics to blend harmoniously. Farm-to-Table sensibilities broaden to embrace the whole of home; Pickled and color-washed woods and weathered metals are the foundation for muted tonal textiles, tableware and ceramics. Mixed materials further enhance the look lending a rustic comfort to even the most urban oasis.

BOLD & BRILLIANT Bold colors—primary, bright and citrus hues—continue to dominate the home accents market. Over the last few years we have watched this trend evolve from rainbow spectrum hues to berry brights and citrus tones. The colors are super-saturated, once reserved solely for accents they are now the dominate story in stand-alone pieces. This trend looks to the progression of this story through various palettes and their use on both common household items like kitchen utensils and coffee presses to home textiles and dinnerware.

Protect: good for us This trend predicts a clean aesthetic, or crisp, understated design. It goes hand in hand with a versatile range of wellness products and detox programmes. As a valuable and rare commodity, silence takes centre stage. It becomes an antidote to a world where we're constantly connected and increasingly feel the desire to switch off and do ourselves some good. The trend is all about protecting our physical, but above all our psychological needs.

Energise : digital dreams People use technology to boost their feelings of well-being. The borders between being online and offline are becoming blurred. And the digital world is encroaching on our physical world. In this process, light is becoming a new way of creating intangible shapes and highlighting dynamic contours. The colour spectrum pulsates between strong and weak contrasts. At the same time, bright and virtually fluorescent colours vibrate in comparison with darker electric-blue shades. This high-energy trend livens up the aesthetic with intensive brilliance and gloss, kaleidoscopic patterns and humorous, athletic designs.

TEXTILES

SPRING/SUMMER 2016

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

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 64

SOFT POP Playful and emotional themes carry intellectual weight in a new cultural climate: frilly decoration can be subversive, and intuition influences design that embraces 'soft power' and a creative mix of the senses. This is driven by a more comprehensive approach to identity and the modern rebranding of feminism, making for an allinclusive world view no longer constrained by gender, sexuality or ethnicity.

OUR RESPONSE: Pink is no longer restricted to the domain of little girls bedrooms, as residential and commercial interiors shift away from gender stereotypes. Soft, sensual touch is represented through the use of sumptuous velvet. Organic feminine shapes with childhood nostalgia permeate everyday environments.

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 65

DEEP SUMMER The strange beauty of the deep sea reminds us of the wonders of the universe and the fantastical possibilities of going beyond its limits. Science takes on a cinematic quality in this preserved world where an unscripted drama is played out by weird creatures, bio-mimicry and morphing substances. Rare and contrasting materials take on an otherworldly importance, often in suspended and floating states. The atmosphere is ephemeral, refined and darkly compelling.

OUR RESPONSE : The colours and shadows of the deep blue sea are portrayed with a fluid installation of textile design and construction, creating a visual portrait of oceanic currents. Ombres blur and fade into each other representing the horizon meeting the sea.

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 66

ECO ACTIVE The story of our world is both natural and manmade – and as we come to terms with the effect we're having on our planet, we are taking a more active role in finding solutions. The global community is gathering to help avoid the loss of ancient cultures and the Earth as we know it. As our survival instincts kick in, sport becomes more extreme, we explore alternative design solutions to basic needs, and new city concepts focus on shifts in geography and populations.

OUR RESPONSE : Reuse, reinterpret and refine. Ancient and indigenous crafts and weaving techniques are reinterpreted and revisited. Fabric is refined and woven in natural or progressive synthetic fibre solutions. Faux effects represent modern technologies crafted to imitate natural textures and surfaces.

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 67

PAST MODERN As the past takes on new relevance and time becomes non-linear, the terms 'future' and 'progress' are interpreted in different ways. The old and new form unlikely partnerships as fresh interpretations of masterpieces clear the way for a subtle return to romance and opulence. The timelines are being removed from history, and we see a pairing of the digital and the crafted, museums becoming 'experiences', and archiving developing into a creative form of expression.

OUR RESPONSE : Romantic and opulent surfaces are applied with a fresh artistic approach. Nostalgic and romantic textiles, like lace and velvet are revitalised with a modern touch. Contemporary, mid-century and Victorian periods are mixed and layered with both irreverence and respect.

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 68

Textiles are foundational elements in design. From tabletop items to other home accents and accessories, textiles can make or break any collection. It is textiles' materials, patterns, colors, and unique details that differentiate them in the marketplace. For Spring/Summer 2016, there is a lot happening in all product categories in regards to textiles.

Here are six key trends to keep an eye on: TEXTURE I COLOR I PATTERN I INDIGO I EMBROIDERY I LINEN

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 69

TEXTURE In S/S 2016, it's all about texture; and the more, the better. A textile's texture adds dimension to a room like nothing else can. Fabric wall art, faux fur throws, and knitted poufs will be especially popular home decor elements. Global influence like intricate weaving, chunky knitting and the use of natural fibers such as alpaca and wood take this season's texture trends to the next level.

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 70

COLOR Pantone, the color authority, announced that Rose Quartz, a light pink shade, and Serenity, a light blue/purple shade are the colors of the year for 2016. This means that spring/summer home textile trends will incorporate these tranquil pastel shades. Reminiscent of a soft pink sunset over a cool blue ocean, these colors will add a gentile, natural vibe to even the most industrial designs.

Trends Book on Textiles, Home Furnishing & Fashion 2016-17 I 71

PATTERN Bold prints and patterns are popular in spring/summer 2016 home interiors. From retro prints to ethnic patterns, anything bold and interesting is on trend. From detailed throwback style textured wallpapers to baskets weaved with geometric designs, anything goes in terms of patterns this season.

SPORTY MESH Go sporty with the sheer trend this season and opt for a knit mesh instead of girly lace. Even thought mesh has athletic roots, this trend looks equally awesome in a t-shirt shape as it does in a date-night dress !

PAPER BAG WAIST Among the most flattering of shapes, the paper bag style will nip in your waist, while allowing some breathing room on top and bottom. Tuck a slim top into your skirt or pants of choice to balance out the exaggerated proportions.

FALL/ WINTER 2016-2017 ACCESSORY TRENDS Furry Scarves, Stoles and Swinging Tails When fur crops up, winter is nigh hand at hand.

Fashion diverted from traditional black or brown fur long ago bravely playing with all the shades possible. Cases in point are the fall/ winter 2016-2017 accessory trends that have left us with saucer-eyed at all those fur scarves, stoles and tails in abundance.

Bow-Knot Scarves Are Rocking.!

There is no better association with gifts, surprises and other lovey-dovey things than romantic bows.

Chunky Knit vs. Skinny Chunky knit and skinny scarves stand as the next fall/ winter 2016 accessory trend on our list, the former promising ultra-warmth, while the latter ultra-femininity. Which one will you vote for – Altuzarra's black collarhugger or Bottega Veneta's black knitted stunner, Christian Siriano's yellow and red warmth-providers or Elie Saab's bohemian swingers? Just stop self-torture and invest in both versions for your future lucrative looks.

Puffer Scarves When it comes to scarves, it seems that no further innovational style can be dreamt up; some plus and minus operations and that's all. But Demna Gvasalia's new creations for Balenciaga truly left us first perplexed then quite enthusiastic with cutting-edge puffer scarves to thrust into the fashion world soon. Yes, the 'new creative director, new ideas' scheme seems to have worked quite successfully.

We see those polka dot or striped scarves knotted in artistic ways but a bizarre half scarf – half hoodie sample also comes into view, which is still to be thought over whether to try or not. Puffer style scarf has been spotted at Iceberg as well with logo mania decorations all over it.

Elongated Scarves vs. Mini Neckerchiefs Loose wrap knitted scarves and mini neckerchiefs also undulated at the recent runway shows thus breaking out a real competition between casual style and romantic twist. Etro brings about pretty striped elongated versions knotted with modern one loop, while at Marissa Webb and Lela Rose we see quick toss casual, yet elegant options. But if you crave romantic mixed with some adventures, Chloe and Manish Arora best fill the bill with their lovely neckerchiefs galore.
