Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Gary Graham Fall 2012 Release is Chaotic in the Best Way

— February 12, 2012 — Fashion
Chaos seems to be the ultimate theme of the Gary Graham Fall 2012 collection, and I mean that in the chicest way possible.

Mr. Graham told Style.com that this season he was inspired by a number of things, most notably, the "Manchester International Theater Festival he attended in July, ancient Iranian wrestling tunics, and WWI naval 'dazzle' camouflage."

If you're wondering how those things all fit together, quite simply, they don't. Neither do the pieces in this collection, but that's what makes the ensembles so intriguing. Clashing patterns with no central, defining shade, an eccentric variety of fabrics and overlapping silhouettes make the Gary Graham Fall 2012 collection random and unpredictable, just like the designer himself.
Trend Themes
1. Clashing Patterns - The trend of clashing patterns in fashion creates opportunities for disruptive innovation that challenges traditional notions of coordination and aesthetic harmony.
2. Eccentric Variety of Fabrics - The trend of using an eccentric variety of fabrics in fashion opens up disruptive innovation opportunities for designers to experiment with unconventional materials and textures.
3. Overlapping Silhouettes - The trend of overlapping silhouettes in fashion allows for disruptive innovation by blurring traditional garment boundaries and creating unique and unexpected shapes.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - The fashion industry can capitalize on the trend of clashing patterns, eccentric fabric choices, and overlapping silhouettes by offering unique and bold designs that cater to consumers seeking individuality and creativity.
2. Textile - The textile industry can embrace the trend of using an eccentric variety of fabrics in fashion by developing innovative textiles that combine different materials and textures, providing designers with more options for experimentation.
3. Design - The design industry can take advantage of the trend of overlapping silhouettes in fashion by creating disruptive innovation in furniture, architecture, and product design, challenging conventional ideas of structure and form.
