Although I don't see myself wearing any of these pieces myself, I was still really excited to see the Cassette Playa 2010 Fall/Winter collection.

Designer and stylist to the stars Carri Munden always comes with something fresh, fearless and fun whenever she creates. The Cassette Playa 2010 Fall/Winter collection is no exception. From jackets that look like they are covered in fanny packs to ankle length men's tops, this is some wild stuff.

**Implications** - Consumers are looking for products that contain an element from the past. Designs that feature a familiar aspect are appealing to those who want to be reminded of simpler times. Companies attempting to increase their appeal could focus on this when coming out with new items.
