Built-In Backpack Vests

The Anrealage SS12 is Full of Quirky Popup Details

— October 28, 2011 — Fashion
The Anrealage SS12 collection is full of quirky details that are reminiscent of the designs seen in past Viktor & Rolf runway shows. These quirky details revolve around plastic molds of different accessories and even the occasional bust that have been heat fused right into the fabrics. For instance, one model looks to be rocking a backpack, but it is actually built into the vest she's modelling. Another model looks particularly buxomly, but that is just a womanly figure popping right out of a shirt.

Utterly unique and quite convincing, the Anrealage SS12 collection is clearly experimenting with silhouettes. The use of a pure white palette gives each model a mannequin-like look that makes the Anrealage SS12 collection seem filled with Halloween costumes.
Trend Themes
1. Built-in Accessories - Fashion designers experimenting with heat fusing of plastic molds right into clothing fabric, creating quirky built-in accessories.
2. Innovative Silhouettes - Designers coming up with new ways to experiment with silhouettes by capitalizing on heat fusing techniques to create compelling and unique shapes.
3. Mannequin-like Fashion - The use of a white color palette in the Anrealage SS12 collection gives the clothing an almost synthetic, mannequin-like look, which could be used to create futuristic, otherworldly fashion trends.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Industry - Fashion designers experimenting with heat fusing techniques, built-in accessories, and mannequin-like silhouettes to create new and exciting fashion trends.
2. Costume Design Industry - Costume designers could use the heat fusing techniques to create costumes that look otherworldly, futuristic, or playful by creating built-in accessories with unique, quirky details.
3. Retail Industry - Retail companies could use the built-in accessory trend to create unique, attention-grabbing products that will stand out on shelves and attract customers seeking something different and trendy.
