RETRO TASTE

As brands and designers seek out sustainable solutions, trends that last longer than one season become more relevant.
Retro style has staying power because it ticks several boxes; among them, it satisfies the need for slower-moving trends.
Use the last half of the 20th century to dip into references for colour and pattern. Mix freely – just use what works together visually. Avoid taking silhouettes from any era too literally; fits are contemporary and that’s what defines the theme.
Focus on key shapes you know work for you now and that feel modern, then add a vintage or retro element via detail, colour or pat- tern.
Designers look back to the 20th century for a hint of nostalgia without getting bogged down in slavish reproductions. This theme ultimately feels new and modern.
