The Spring 2011 Zara lookbook is bright, basic and non-fussy. Forty-year-old British supermodel Stella Tennant looks as fab as ever in the line's [bold, bright pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025) and baggy business fashion.

The Spring 2011 Zara lookbook features almost all solid colors with the exception of a pair of striking patterned pants with a bow-tie belt. A lot of the fits are [baggy and loose](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digawel-springsummer-2026) -- they look pretty darn comfy.

**Implications** - Baggy fashions are gaining consumer appeal as they are a reflection of the masculinization of femininity. Comfort is the driving force behind this role reversion; while corsets and other highly uncomfortable fashions suited women in the past, contemporary women are looking to dress in looser fitting, masculinized fashions that maintain style and comfort.
