TPC Trendwatch - November 09












Gentle Reader -

When working with trends, you must not show a bias. Rather, simply record the impression, and look to see if there are corroborations. Some notes from this weekend:

Tea gaining ground over coffee? Coffee may keep us awake, but tea seems to make us aware.

Allergens and perfume? Chanel No. 5 may be billed as the first synthetic perfume, but are we heading toward completely artificial compositions? Aren't we already there?

Probiotic cocktails? Live cultures in one's martini glass? Kombucha and vodka - stirred?

A return to the grand fabrics: the names are almost forgotten - Abraham, Bucol, Rubelli - that once used to appear in the haute couture issues of fashion magazines. These are the names of the suppliers of great fabric (not a complete list). Is a short jacket in emerald silk faille instead of black, ballistic nylon no longer possible?

Mosaics and pietre dure in jewellery:
as cuff bracelets?

Cyprus: there are so many reasons why this island should be watched. Location alone makes it an ideal place to launch Eastern Mediterranean couture.
