The Ksenia Schnaider Spring/Summer 2016 collection is something to look forward to during winter. Its concept is in the absence of a concept itself. The collection is created for those women who are in a way tired of fashion, but are still interested in wearing authentic, beautiful clothes.

Naturally, the collection is based on Ksenia Schnaider's [signature silhouettes and techniques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26). Despite its [simplicity and cleanness](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kzk-studio), the Ksenia Schnaider S/S 2016 collection is far from being plain. Traditionally, glitched prints by Anton Schnaider are used on the pieces of clothing. However, now they resemble a birch pattern, and are quite simplified. You can find shirts, skirts inspired by shirts, unusual shorts-pants, and some extraordinary pieces, such as [bomber jackets with feathers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow) and silk taffeta sweatshirts stitched with swans down.
