Rusted Edge
For this second trend I gained inspiration from another blog called Pattern Curator; http://patterncurator.org/about/. This is an insightful forecast of mood boards and color stories. I found two boards on the blog, which gave me some clues for my rusted edge theme, the two boards are…
Cinnamon chai: Rust and Stardust:
I created my mood board for my trend with two key themes in mind, bold colour and also rust. I think this theme would suit Autumn Winter with is autumnal colour palette as well at the materials it would work well with.

More inspiration for this trend came from Giles Deacon’s ‘Macabre Romanticism’ for an Autumn Winter catwalk in 2012. Deacon described his line as the dark tale of a fleeing damson running from the flames of a burning country mansion. The prints that he used through out told a story of bejeweled burnt tapestries, frosted woodland or thistles, rose caught in there own thrones. The actual structure of the garments had a Victorian look, but with a captivating bewitching fluidity.

Rusted edge is a colour pop trend that emphasizes autumn to the fullest. By bringing in a theme such as rust, there are many textile patterns that can be explored through this. Rust has such a variety of colour palette it can be used almost like a marble effect, or a colour pops to excel an outfit. Using Deacon and the blogs inspiration I looked into how this trend could be used, I think it will be a popular trend for architecture or interior design, using soft woods and marbling effect with a range of colour along with fur furnishings. Much like Deacon’s line a story could be told through the variety of emotion that the colour palette offers, I think the trend would also be popular for accessories in fashion, having a pop of colour.
Also in the recent fall 15 fashion shows, recently shown in New York there was a strong theme of orange and blood reds, from Victoria Beckham’s structured high collared coat to Neem Khan’s Ombre gown which he gave a lose flowing structure to.
