Cute,Fun and Eastern

Eastern fashion has taken the world by storm in the past years, Especially in the twentieth century. Most Eastern fashion is inspired by nature and designers use elements of nature in their designs.The designs range from bold and bright to subtle and sophisticated which means that there is something for everyone in Eastern fashion.

One of the most well known Eastern designers is Kenzo.He makes sophisticated jackets and skirts along with bold vibrant patterns and colours.

China and Japan is mostly known for its creative and cute cartoon drawings. They are well known for there enhanced eye size,big heads,pointy chins and traditional Chinese and Japanese faces.There are a range of styles in this art but the main two are Anime and Manga.

Sassy Seventies - Bold and Bright are Back!

 This was shown at Milan fashion week, the spring/summer collection by Prada.

We feel that this 'outfit' should be in a hospital, it's not a fashion trend!

But we understand that block neon colours are in as fashion is influenced by the 1970's era and we like the shoes as they are colourful, artistic and funky.

We like the pattens and colours of this clothing, this is by D & G spring/summer collection.

It is also influenced by the 1970's look, with the platform shoes and the bright bold colours, against the subtle neutral background.

 

This top is from a collection from New Look, we like the shape with the bat wings and also the bold big picture, and also with the neutral background. This costs £16.99

 

• 

This dress is part of a Spring collection from Marc Jacobs, based again on 1970's look. It costs $995.00
