Summer Fashion Trend Report

Discover the Wide Appeal of this Emerging Style Sector

— March 13, 2012 — Fashion
The warmer months are well-know for bringing about a flurry of excitement in the style world, and the latest Summer Fashion Trend Report has streamlined this season's most pervasive ventures. The typified images of flowing cocktail dresses and matching bathing suits are no longer leading this posh sector, and are instead being replaced with atypical emerging patterns that have been captured within 366 PRO Trends and 3,381 related prototypes in our report.

The summer fashion industry has witnessed a vast overhaul. Today, brands and designers are approving frameworks that incorporate Cavalier Couture and Gamified Life, two features elaborated upon in this Trend Report. While in part geared towards all members of the vogue domain, extensive developments have also been made in the realms of technology, marketing and even fast food. By merging these disparate fields altogether, an all-encompassing genre has been created with mass appeal for nearly any undertaking.  
Trend Themes
1. Cavalier Couture - Opportunities for fashion designers to incorporate traditional elements such as corsets, ruffles and lace with a modern twist.
2. Gamified Life - Opportunities for tech companies to create products and experiences that gamify everyday life and encourage engagement with customers.
3. All-encompassing Genre - Opportunities to merge disparate fields such as fashion, technology, marketing and fast food to create a new genre with mass appeal.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - Fashion designers can leverage the traditional elements of Cavalier Couture to create fresh styles that appeal to modern consumers.
2. Technology - Tech companies can develop products and experiences that gamify everyday life to encourage engagement and loyalty with customers.
3. Fast Food - Fast food companies can incorporate elements of the summer fashion trends to create packaging and promotional materials that appeal to fashion-conscious consumers.
