Jeweled Military Jackets

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Obsession With The Spring 2009 Balmain Blazer

— April 21, 2009 — Luxury
Can't get enough of the Spring 2009 Balmain Blazer, the stunning military jacket that dazzled Paris Fashion Week showgoers? Neither can we, and apparently, neither can the rest of the fashion-obsessed web.

The Balmain Blazer comes with pronounced, yet feminine shoulder pads, but the most stunning variations even include elaborate jeweled embellishments, like the military-style Balmain blazer Beyonce was seen wearing earlier this season.

Implications - As North American society's gender roles become more egalitarian, women are looking to assert themselves as equal in power to men. The fashion industry is taking steps towards this revolution by incorporating more military-inspired designs into their garments. Corporations looking to capitalize on this pattern can release products that are conducive to empowering women.
Trend Themes
1. Military-inspired Fashion - The fashion industry is embracing military-inspired designs to empower women and reflect evolving gender roles.
2. Elaborate Jeweled Embellishments - Fashion enthusiasts are drawn to garments with extravagant jeweled embellishments, offering opportunities for unique and luxurious designs.
3. Egalitarian Fashion Statement - With the rise of gender equality, there is a growing demand for fashion items that empower women and challenge traditional gender norms.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Design - The fashion design industry can explore incorporating military-inspired designs with jeweled embellishments to create empowering garments.
2. Luxury Retail - Luxury retailers can tap into the demand for garments with elaborate jeweled embellishments to offer exclusive and high-end fashion options.
3. Jewelry Manufacturing - The jewelry manufacturing industry can collaborate with fashion designers to create unique and intricate jeweled embellishments for military-inspired fashion garments.
