The brief but always heart lifting London Collections Men finished yesterday, leaving us with the reminiscence of creativity, class and playfulness, and the hope to see all that come to life next winter.<br />

Burberry Prorsum traced and established the hints that others like Dunhill confirmed of this trend. Give into boho, relaxed looks, scarves and accessories everywhere, freedom of style. And, of course, a very notorious ode to the <i>hipster</i> in the shape of round, thick, carey glasses. Young, beautiful, classy and wearable, we bow down to the boho-nerd man.<br />
<br />
<i>Burberry Prorsum perfiló e instauró las pautas de una tendencia que posteriormente confirmaron casas como Dunhill. Tiempo de abandonarse al boho, looks casuales, bufandas y abundantes accesorios, estilo libre. Y por supuesto, una notoria oda al </i>hipster<i> en forma de gafas de pasta carey, gruesas y redondas. Joven, bonito, con clase y sobre todo ponible; nos rendimos al hombre boho-nerd.</i><br />

There can't be a men collections week without a good dose of classic, gentleman-like outfits and reinventions of the suit, shirt and vest. We have seen beautifully tailored, elegant suits from Kilgour, Gieves & Hawkes or Hardy Amies. But the trend that takes over our hearts this season is the <i>comfy</i> version of all those classics. Lose trousers, light, flowy fabrics, oversized jackets and vests, all combined with a relaxed attitude and also fitting into the boho-nerd trend.<br />
<br />
<i>No puede existir una semana de la moda masculina sin una buena dosis de conjuntos clásicos y elegantes, y reinvenciones del traje de chaqueta, camisa y chaleco. Hemos visto trajes de sastrería impecable de la mano de Kilgour, Gieves & Hawkes o Hardy Amies entre otros. Pero la tendencia que nos ha robado el corazón esta temporada es la versión cómoda de todos esos clásicos. Pantalones anchos, tejidos ligeros, chaquetas y chalecos </i>oversize<i>, todo ello combinado con una actitud relajada que escarcea con la tendencia </i>boho-nerd<i>.</i><br />

<br />
<span style="text-align: center;">It's been around us for a few seasons now and it's going nowhere: the military uniforms and aesthetics still captivate the most creative of designers. Take for instance Sarah Burton and her collection for Alexander McQueen: inspired by the centenary of World War I, many of her looks had clear references to army garments and colours, which also inspired many of the collections we've seen these days.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: center;"><br /></span>

<span style="text-align: justify;">Something has been stated during this LCM week and it is, prints are not only for Summer. A fearless combination of animal and flower prints, mosaics, paisley, denim and ocasionally, also fur, sets the pace for a not-at-all-boring Winter.</span><br />
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span>

<b>TEXTURES / <i>TEXTURAS</i></b><br />
<b><br /></b>
It may not seem like much of a revelation that the main current for next winter involves knitwear, sheepskin, wool and fur. What is remarkable is, they are present in their most pure, raw form, wild, big, cosy, warm. And they are EVERYWHERE. Outfits built with woolen trousers, thick knit sweaters, fluffy, big jackets, sheep vests, XXL overcoats and infinite scarves were the common theme tying all the shows together. They are undeniable protagonists of next season, but share stage with texture like vinyl and neoprene, and soft, printed tartan fabrics.<br />
<br />
<i>Puede parecer poco revelador que la tendencia principal para el próximo invierno incluye el punto, piel de borrego, lana y pelo. Lo que sí cabe destacar es que están presentes en su forma más pura, salvaje, cálida y a lo grande. Y están POR TODAS PARTES. Looks constituidos de pantalones de lana, jerseys de punto grueso, chaquetas enormes y esponjosas, chalecos de borreguito, abrigos XXL y bufandas infinitas fueron la temática común que conectó todas las pasarelas. Son protagonistas innegables de la próxima temporada, pero comparten escenario con texturas como el vinilo y neopreno, y suaves telas escocesas.</i><br />

It's black, it's shiny and it's a clear trend for AW15. Combined with fur, in the shape of shiny, brilliantly worked leather, on it's own with a strong 80s vibe, or with a chic touch to it, few designers could resist to including some vinyl dreams in their collections.<br />
<br />
<i>Es negro, es brillante y es una tendencia indiscutible para la temporada OI-15.

It is no wonder why rust becomes truly inspiring when it comes to creating the palette for a collection: the variety of tones, the wide range spectrum; from deep, fiery reds to ocres, browns, bright yellows...

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is finally here, Pantone's choice for colour of the year 2015 has been published. And in all honesty, it doesn't come as much of a surprise. We have seen burgundy wines, reds, aubergines, crimson and each and every possible shade of red in the SS14 fashion shows (don't miss our <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.com.es/2014/03/red-aw14-trend.html" target="_blank">RED trend update</a> for AW14). After a 2014 tinted in calming, pastel lilac, (a.k.a. Radiant Orchid), it was time for a fiery, vibrant, strong colour, and Marsala is just that.<br />
<br />
<i>Por fin está aquí, la elección de Pantone como color del año 2015. Y sinceramente, no resulta del todo sorprendente. Hemos visto tonos vino borgoña, rojos, berenjenas, carmesí y todas y cada unas de las tonalidades de rojo en los shows de PV14 (no os perdáis el avance de <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.com.es/2014/03/red-aw14-trend.html" target="_blank">tendencias en ROJO</a> para OI-14). Después de un 2014 teñido de un relajante lila pastel (alias </i>Radiant Orchid<i> u Orquídea Radiante), tocaba el turno a un color fogoso, vibrante y fuerte. Y el Marsala es precisamente eso.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A mixture of deep red, warm chocolate brown and hints of purple, Marsala promises to be the perfect touch to warm up every corner of our lives in 2015. This is not the first clue that we have from the strong influence and comeback of rich, warm tones. Every make up brand has created a range of brick reds, warm browns and rusty coppers, and celebrities like Kendall Jenner have contributed to popularising the 90s reddish brown look again.<br />
<br />
<i>Una mezcla de rojo intenso, marrón chocolate y toques de morado, el Marsala promete ser el toque perfecto para dar un aire cálido a cada esquina de nuestras vidas en 2015. Esta no es la primera pista que hemos tenido de la increíble influencia y retorno de los marrones ricos y cálidos. Todas las marcas de maquillaje han creado una gama de rojos ladrillo, marrones chocolate y cobres oxidados y </i>celebrities <i>como Kendall Jenner han contribuido a popularizar el look de los 90 con labios en marrón rojizo.</i></div>

Couldn't be happier to see this colour as Color of the Year by Pantone, it was time for a rich and powerful colour, and nothing is more powerful than a strong red, inspired by wine and topped up with earthy tones. The most feminine hue has been proclaimed Color of the Year; welcome to the <b>Marsala</b> era.<br />
<br />
<i>No podría gustarme más ver este color como Color del Año de Pantone, Le tocaba el turno a un color rico y poderoso, y nada lo es más que un rojo fuerte, inspirado en vino y coronado con tonos tierra. El tono más femenino es Color del Año; bienvenidos a la era <b>Marsala</b>.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The reminiscence of the 90s is vibrant and pulsing all over the fashion sphere. Everybody from designers, to celebrities, to fashionistas are embracing the most practical ramification of the most classic garment: the culotte.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although this piece was an undeniable hit in the late 80s and early 90s, we need to go all the way back to the mid 19th century to find it's origin. Back then, the so called <i>bloomers</i> (predecessors of today's culotte), were born to conciliate womenswear with the impracticality of skirts and gowns for sports and everyday activities like riding bikes. They were quickly dismissed, as the look of them was definitely flagged as aesthetically unpleasant (they looked somewhat like harem pants, and back then that was considered horrendous on a Western woman).<br />
<br />
<i>La reminiscencia de los 90 vibra intensamente por la esfera de la moda. Desde diseñadores hasta </i>celebrities <i>y </i>fashionistas<i> están adoptando la rama más práctica de una prenda clásica: la falda pantalón.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Aunque esta prenda fue un </i>hit<i> indudable de finales de los 80 y principios de los 90, hemos de retroceder hasta mediados del siglo XIX para encontrar su origen. Por entonces, las llamadas </i>bloomers<i> (antecesoras de la falda-pantalón actual) nacieron en un intento de conciliar la poco práctica vestimenta femenina de faldas largas con la realización de actividades deportivas y otras actividades diarias, como montar en bicicleta. Fueron descartadas rápidamente y tachadas de estéticamente desagradables (se asemejaban a los pantalones </i>harem<i>, que entonces eran considerados espantosos en una mujer occidental).</i></div>

It was only towards the 1910s that the culotte trend started getting acceptance amongst mass public. Abandoning the original baggy pant look that made them so impopular, culottes started getting reshaped and redesigned with a true purpose: making movement an easy, flawless task for women. Designer Elsa Schiaparelli came up with the first design of this garment that comes close to what nowadays we would call a <i>skort</i>; she designed a gorgeous pair of bermuda pants covered by a skirt for friend tennis player Lili Álvarez, who starred it at Wimbledon.<br />
<br />
<i>No fue hasta 1910 que la falda-pantalón empezó a recibir la aceptación del gran público. Abandonando su original estilo </i>baggy<i> que las hizo tan poco populares, las faldas-pantalón se reformaron y rediseñaron con un propósito inequívoco: hacer del movimiento una tarea sencilla y cómoda para las mujeres. La diseñadora Elsa Schiaparelli creó el primer diseño de falda-pantalón que se asemeja a lo que hoy en día conocemos; diseñó un precioso par de pantalones bermudas cubiertos por una falda. La destinataria de esta innovadora prenda fue Lili Álvarez, tenista que se estrenaba en Wimbledon.</i></div>

The longer versions of the <i>skorts</i> come ready to take over winter, shamelessly throwing perfectly gorgeous gowns over flawless pairs of trousers.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the reigning trend over all catwalks, all four fashion weeks, every stage was tinted <b>red</b> for AW14. From its most vibrant and sharp shades to matte burgundies and wines, next winter we will have to paint all white roses red.<br />

Beards are always awesome. They started becoming a fashion thing a couple of years ago, in fact, <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/off-with-razors.html">here is a post</a> from 2011 commenting on the timid uprising of the trend. Three years later, razor businesses gone bankrupt and <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/as-said-before-bye-razors.html" target="_blank">books written</a> about it, beards have become object of desire, admiration... and design!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have a look at what photographer Pierce Thiot and wife have established as theme for their Tumblr page "<a href="http://willitbeard.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Will It Beard</a>". An absolutely beautiful, funny and enjoyable project that is definitely worth having a look at.<br />
<br />
<i>Las barbas son siempre geniales. Comenzaron a tornarse "accesorios de moda" hace un par de años, de hecho, <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/off-with-razors.html">he aquí un post</a> de 2011 comentando el tímido alzamiento de esta tendencia. Tres años más tarde, empresas de cuchillas de afeitar en quiebra y libros sobre el tema publicándose, las barbas se han convertido en objeto de deseo, admiración... ¡y diseño!</i><br />

The rainiest fashion week has begun! Starting on lovers day can only be a good sign, awaiting to see some really interesting proposals like the ones we have already got from Felder Felder or Jean-Pierre Braganza.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Not to forget the juicy trends that NYFW left us with, so here is a little summary to refresh your memory.<br>

It's only been a week of NYFW and there is already a clear upcoming trend that we could have never expected and yet we are sure going to enjoy; it is what I call the <i>Olympia</i> trend.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now what is that? I am borrowing the name from Manet's impressionist painting <i>Olympia</i>, which portraits a girl lying on a chaise-longue with nothing on but a thin black bow tied around her neck.<br>
<br>
<i>Sólo llevamos una semana de NYFW y ya podemos hablar de una tendencia emergente, inesperada y que no obstante seguro que adoraremos; la que yo he decidido llamar tendencia </i>Olympia.<br>
<br>
<i>Bien, ¿de qué va esta tendencia? Tomando prestado el nombre del cuadro impresionista de Manet </i>Olympia<i>, en el que vemos a una joven echada en un</i> chaise-longue <i>llevando tan solo un finísimo lazo negro alrededor de su cuello a modo de gargantilla.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You might be familiar with the saying <i>fail to prepare, prepare to fail</i>. Well, I sure know someone who will not (possibly) fail to prepare, and that is Sue Evans. Head of Catwalks at trend giant WGSN, she gives us some tips on what to expect on NYFW's catwalks.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A brief summary of what Sue Evans mentions and some of those trends as also <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/spring-14-top-10-main-trends.html" target="_blank">seen on this blog</a> before.<br>

<i>¡Las semanas de la moda han llegado! Con toda la locura que envuelve Nueva York estos días, creo que es un buen momento para prepararnos para la maratón de la moda y hacer los deberes de antemano. ¿Cómo?</i><br>
<i><br></i>
<i>Puede que os resulte familiar el dicho </i>fracasa en la preparación, prepárate para el fracaso<i>. Bien, alguien que sin duda no fallará en su preparación es Sue Evans. Directora de Pasarelas para el gigante de las tendencias WGSN, nos da algunas pistas acerca de qué podemos esperar en esta nueva edición de la NYFW.</i><br>

Yes, 2013 is over (or will be in just a few hours). And just like everywhere else around the globe and the "digiglobe", it is time for a retrospective. However, I find it much more interesting to look back in order to make a good estimate of what we can expect coming forward.<br>

It is official: Pantone Colour for 2014 has been unveiled. The lucky shade for next year is <i>Radiant Orchid</i> (aka 18-3224), an absolutely stunning lilac-y cold pink.</div>

On my <a href="http://trendpreport.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/youtube-killed-tv-star-youtube-paid.html" target="_blank">previous post</a>, I mentioned how YouTube paid subscription models will become the new television, and also how many industries will be benefiting from it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also raised the question of why is the Fashion Industry not going along with it. Most big fashion brands' YouTube channels are an absolute failure, leave alone them launching a paid one. What fashion brands do not seem to understand is that having a YouTube channel isn't simply putting any videos up as long as related to their brand. It needs a strategy behind it, needs to be addressed at the proper audience and needs to blend with those people in the field that do have a significant presence within the platform.<br>

Town criers. The people responsible for announcing official communications and news of interest to the masses. Back in the Middle Ages, these people were the ultimate source of information, and whoever has the information, holds the power. Who would have told them around 1450 that a device called the printing press, would revolutionise the world and leave them practically out of work.</div>

Of all areas of Trend Forecasting, I find music might be one of the hardest to work on. There are so many different groups, genres, artists, styles... Or maybe, and precisely because of this, it should be easier to forecast the next "sound", as the more information, the better you can extract conclusions.</div>

Google Images is a source of surprises, and while doing some research, I stumbled upon a photo that captivated me. It was a picture of British model and socialite Alexa Chung. I had to double check, and was shocked with how much she reminded me of cinema legend Leslie Caron, particularly on the 1953 film, "Lili".</div>

Being as passionate about make up and cosmetics as I am, it would have been hard for me not to stumble upon this new cosmetics brand, <a href="http://www.emcosmetics.com/" target="_blank">Em-Cosmetics</a>.<br>

Doing a bit of research on interesting apps in growth, I came across this one, Snapchat. For those who are not familiar with this app, Snapchat is an app that allows you to share photos and videos with your contacts. How is this innovative? I thought. Well, the singularity of this app is, the recipient will only be able to see your "snap" for up to 10 seconds. If you don't screen shot the content, it will disappear.</div>

In many places around the globe, looking out the window such a day as today, the weather can be described as anything but inviting. Hence the idea of exposing even the tiniest bit of our poor, darling skin seems like torture.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nevertheless, there is hope around the corner; grey days will soon be long gone and there is a wonderful trend awaiting their arrival: <b>belly show-off</b>.</div>
