Trend report: 3 Trends for Spring/Summer 2010 [Continued]

Pastoral interlude
Raffia-embellished dresses, bell skirts worthy of Marie Antoinette at Le Petit Trianon, a literal romp in the hay—Karl Lagerfeld famously went country at Chanel. But he wasn't the only one. With gingham from Christopher Kane, pinafore dresses at Bottega Veneta, and homespun yet luxe embroideries courtesy of Oscar de la Renta, looking good this spring should be a picnic.


Roberto Cavalli


Pattern Play
When it comes to prints, more is definitely more this season. If designers like Dries Van Noten and Donatella Versace have their way, you'll be mixing and matching from head to toe. And we're not just talking traditional florals, though there were plenty of pretty ones at Etro, Anna Sui, and Tory Burch. Duro Olowu's tribal motifs and Givenchy's digital designs were engineered for maximum impact.


Alexander McQueen

The Big Reveal
Unless you're a pop star or a fame monster, you may decide to adopt this trend sparingly. But there's no doubt you'll be seeing exposed brassieres on more than just the office flirt this spring. It wasn't only longtime lingerie lovers like Dolce & Gabbana and Jean Paul Gaultier who got in on the action on the runways; also daring to bare were Antonio Berardi, Karl Lagerfeld at Fendi, and Nina Ricci's new man, Peter Copping.
