DIRECTIONS BY Into the Wild Adam Selman Bottega Veneta Dolce-and-Gabbana Max Mara Tom Ford A nimal prints have been around for so long that they have carved out a niche from themselves under the ‘classics’ category. Though their presence may be felt strongly or mildly, depending upon different seasons, there has been no one time where the strong print has been absent from the fashionscape. For Fall 2018, designers presented a heady dose of zebra and leopard to tiger and cheetah in an assortment of wild stripes and spots. Presented head-to-toe without abandon or mashed up against each other or conventional motif placements, the fierce print made its way over calf-length dresses, wrap-around sheaths and a slew of flowy silhouettes. Scarf Prints Faustine Steinmetz Marine Serre Richard Quinn Salvatore Ferragamo Toga S atin has been a front row winner from the last couple of seasons, and this season has been joined by its close affiliate – silk, across fashion capitals. Credited to life by Vetements and Balenciaga’s recent collections, the resort-y print found itself being blown upon silk dresses, tops and skirts, often accentuated with embellished beading or pearls. www.apparelresources.com | MAY 2018 | Apparel Online Bangladesh 69
