# Girly Menswear-Inspired Ensembles The Tibi Spring 2013 Collection Infuses Pastels with Leather By Gil Cohen | Published 2012-09-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tibi-spring-2013 References: [afterdrk.freshnet.se](http://afterdrk.freshnet.se/2012/09/09/tibi/) & [racked](http://racked.com/archives/2012/09/09/tibi-2.php) The Tibi Spring 2013 collection has a toned-down color palette, forecasting a relaxed and easy-going vibe for next spring. Clean silhouettes without too much fuss are the main focus of Tibi's latest collection, simply paired with strappy stilettos and soft white nail polish. The flirty crop tops and [flowy skirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/femininity-in-bloom) are offset by more structured pieces such as the [menswear-inspired trousers and jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26) as well as the tailored dresses. The few pops of pattern and the mild colors -- hints of pale yellow, peachy pinks and baby blue -- work surprisingly well in contrast with the black and [shiny leather pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-spring-collection), resulting in a harmoniously balanced overall collection. There is a great infusion of androgyny with femininity in this Tibi Spring 2013 Collection. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Toned-down Color Palette:** Opportunity for innovative color combinations that balance subtlety with pops of pattern and texture. - **Menswear-inspired Pieces:** Potential for reinventing traditional menswear elements in women's fashion, creating a unique androgynous aesthetic. - **Structured Silhouettes:** Space for incorporating clean and tailored lines into feminine garments, offering a modern and polished look. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can explore the use of toned-down color palettes, menswear-inspired pieces, and structured silhouettes to create disruptive and visually intriguing collections. - **Retail:** Retailers can capitalize on the trend of girly menswear-inspired ensembles by curating and promoting clothing lines that feature these elements. - **Fashion Design:** Fashion designers have the opportunity to experiment with the fusion of femininity and menswear aesthetics, creating innovative and boundary-pushing designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsical Spring Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025.md) - [Understated Spring-Centric Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stein.md) - [Laid-Back Modernwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digawel-springsummer-2026.md) - [Modern Tailored Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26.md) - [Transitional Spring Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/splendid-srping-2025.md) - [Modern High-Fashion Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/terani-couture.md) - [Fabric-Centric Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sage-nation-5.md) - [Feminine Spring Apparel Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/femininity-in-bloom.md) - [Coordinated Leather Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-spring-collection.md)
