Olympic Combat Couture

The Jeremy Laing Spring 2013 Line is Athletic

— October 26, 2012 — Fashion
Jeremy Laing's Spring 2013 collection is full of texture and intense layering. Laing's pieces evoke images of a posh, athletic duel if there ever was one with tribal-esque components and airy fabrics, accommodating the swift movements that one would find in a standard James Bond film.

Laing stuck to a neutral color palette for his Spring 2013 line. The charcoal hues and off-whites reflect his recent trip to New Orleans where he spent time on a bayou excursion. Coined by the designer as "swamp deco," he adds to a common craving for minimalism and simplicity in the realm of ready-to-wear.

Embellishment is the word that best characterizes these ensembles. While the pieces are at base basic, they are intensely decorated with buttoned pouches and dangling pockets.
Trend Themes
1. Athletic Glamour - The trend of blending athletic wear with high fashion allows for innovative designs that are both functional and stylish.
2. Minimalistic Embellishment - The trend of emphasizing minimalistic design with the addition of strategically placed embellishments will appeal to consumers who seek a balance between simplicity and sophistication.
3. Tribal-esque Accents - The trend of incorporating tribal-esque accents into clothing creates a unique aesthetic that appeals to consumers who seek bold and distinct fashion choices.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - The fashion industry can capitalize on the trend of athletic-inspired clothing by creating unique and functional designs that cater to consumers who prioritize comfort and practicality in their clothing.
2. Sportswear - The sportswear industry can explore innovative designs that incorporate elements of high fashion, thereby enhancing the aesthetic appeal of athletic clothing and potentially increasing sales.
3. Textile - The textile industry can benefit from the trend of minimalistic design by exploring new techniques and materials that enhance the simplicity of a piece while maintaining its quality and durability.
