Safari Style

African Hunting Garb is the Look of Choice for Wild Fashionistas this Summer

— March 26, 2009 — Fashion
OK my fashionholic friends, it's time we go on safari... on a hunt for cargo pockets, tassels, Indiana Jones-style ranger hats and everything khaki, olive green or earth toned. Don't forget suede and animal skins, from snake to zebra (faux will do just fine). The world's most fabulous designers showed us herds of models in safari-style couture on their Spring/Summer 2009 runways, at multiple international fashion weeks.

Featured in this gallery are looks by D'Squared, YSL, Gucci, Chloe, Ralph Lauren, Louis Vuitton, and Wunderkind.
Trend Themes
1. Safari-style Fashion - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing sustainable and cruelty-free alternatives to animal skins and incorporating technology for functional yet fashionable safari-inspired clothing.
2. Cargo Pockets and Utility Fashion - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrating smart textile technology into cargo pockets and utility fashion for added functionality, such as built-in charging ports or temperature control features.
3. Earth-toned Color Palette - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating eco-friendly and non-toxic dyes for a wide range of earth-toned colors, allowing fashion brands to offer sustainable and on-trend options.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Design - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborating with scientists and engineers to develop innovative materials and sustainable manufacturing processes for safari-style fashion.
2. Textile Manufacturing - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Investing in research and development to create high-performance fabrics that are both durable and eco-friendly to meet the growing demand for safari-inspired clothing.
3. Technology and Wearables - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Partnering with fashion brands to incorporate wearable technology seamlessly into safari-style fashion, enhancing functionality and connectivity for consumers.
