1, feminine style: bud silk mesh fabric

Lace silk eye fabrics, ruffled edges and crocheted cutouts highlight softness.

2, stitching & patch

The craftsmanship is undiminished and tends to leave bulky, soft-touch yarns and exquisite fabric combinations. Superfine mohair, cotton and metallic luster yarns combine to perfectly match tactile collages, embroidery, irregularly hand-embedded and airfelt. Tulle lace and silk fabrics give deconstructed styles a sense of luxury and exquisite touch, emphasizing the trend of transparency and feminine style this season.

The repair effect is no longer only functional, but also becomes a trendy decoration

The old-fashioned and worn-out effects are still important. Rock-style huge openings, random stitching and spinning techniques are used to create a sense of balance with luxurious yarns and vibrant colors. Max Mara uses an elegant neutral color to give the evening wear a sense of edgy, while saturated pastel shades and volume contours are full of youthful vitality.

3, wide stripes

Stripes are still popular, and textures, seams, and contours are more varied than in spring and summer 2017. The nautical wind, sun loungers and rugby stripes are very visually pleasing. Frills, asymmetrical hemlines, misplaced inlays and laminates are the key avant-garde updates. Lapel blouses, tank tops and crew neck blouses maintain a slim profile and sporty style, using fine gauge Merino fleeces, cotton and luxurious man-made yarns.

4, bright color

Lightweight sheer veils have been on the rise, interpreting ultra-light, fine knit trends. This season, they use bright colors with lively stripes, borders, and patterns. These ultra-fine knits can be layered or worn individually, and glossy or matte faux-blend fabrics can highlight modern glamour.

5, soft segment dyeing

The classic faded and cross-cut yarns are softly matched for a versatile selection, blending in mid-stitch cross-season knits and summer smocks. The smooth and delicate effect emerged in the spring and summer of 2018, replacing the seams, fringes, and handicrafts of Spring/Summer 2017 with thick stripes, gradients, and metallic sheen yarns. The silhouette is relaxed and refined, refurbishing the sense of shape of the previous season.

6, gloss shine

Elegant metal yarns are on the rise in autumn/winter 2017/2018. The flicker of metal-colored yarns and treatments give the transparent and opaque knits a gorgeous look. Missoni and Ungaro explored the nightclubs of the 70s, while LucioVanotti and Esteban Cortazar interpreted the palace's gorgeous trends. Party outfits and evening dresses make the most of the dresses, lapels and crew necks.

7, gorgeous decoration

As the elegant trend of the court in the spring and summer of 2018 analyzed, the decorative elements highlight the exaggerated charm. The jewelry of the whole layout is inspired by vintage brooches, while zippers and tulle give it a modern twist. The beaded animal motif adds playful elements while Gucci uses a range of craftsmanship, such as intarsia, rhinestones, studded diamonds and metallic sheen yarns, to enhance the gorgeous effect.
