Taking cues from the best of catwalks and going for four key themes namely "Artisan Stroke", "City Sportif", "Resort Retreat" and "Aqua Gods", the SS’12 collection explores the choicest of trends coupled with the chicest of shape that are classic yet bold and edgy, vivid prints, colors and designs.

While in recent seasons, fashion trends have dictated girls borrowing from the male wardrobe, the offerings for SS’12 indicate a definite return to femininity and glamor.

The trend of combining handcrafted looks with all-things tribal is reflected through "Artisan Stroke" where women are dressed in lustrous silky fabrics alongside jersey, satin and nylon.

Mixed-message prints with micro patterns, graphic stripe blocking and deco-inspired geometrics are available in key colors like orange, emerald, black, old gold, navy, white. With North African tribal feel for inspiration the treatment is hyper-real in nature.

Men wear the same trend in material like linen or silk, smooth or printed cotton in crumpled finishes with over-dyed effects and textured knit.

Traditional filigree and arabesque motifs in ethnic African prints, engineered dip-dyes, ikat weaves and prints are key treatments given to earthen colors that are balanced with solid neutrals in tones of orange, rich berry and marine blues.

The next big trend to take the fashion world by storm is "Resort Retreat", a perfect way to unwind with the 60s for inspiration.

The clean graphic lines of simple and dropped-waist shifts, pinafore dresses, A-line skirts, and collarless cardigan jackets, printed shirts with cigarette pants and knee-length shorts with highly decorated fabrics lend texture and depth to these beautifully simple silhouettes.

“So whether you need early concepts which draw inspiration from the world of shimmer in Aqua to the 60s in Resort, solid backups to your hunches when exploring tribalism and a bit of sport inspired city collection, or fresh ideas for updating your wardrobe throughout the season, the well-researched Splash collection will be the go-to destination,” said the press release.
