Release Summary: Topshop announce its new women's fashion collections
for Spring and Summer 2008
Press
Release Body: Topshop, a leading women's fashion
brand with over 309 fashion stores nationwide, has announced details
of its new spring and summer collections.
The
new Topshop
spring and summer lines which include Jet Set, Boho Tech
and Colourclash will reflect a variety of new
womens fashion trends, which are set to be popular looks during
early and mid 2008. Each collection has very distinct aesthetic
as Topshop explains:
Jet
Set - This 1930s' cruise revival sees smart high waisted
dresses with cut-about sailor stripes and neat tea dresses mixed
with more fluid chiffons. Silk tie-neck blouses with waterfall frills
and draw-string Ts are given cute rope prints, nautical inspired-stars
and anchor motifs. Boxy 1940s style jackets are paired with blue
and crisp white high-waisted jeans and stirrup trousers, while playful
bow-print Ts give a youthful twist. Dark, contrasting trims and
vivid intarsia knits add weight and texture to the primary colour
palette. Headscarves are key, casually slung about the neck. Striped
pumps and chunky round sunglasses finish this nautical look.
Boho Tech - Eye catching dip and tie-dyed pieces
with an ethnic feel are layered over colourful jersey sportswear.
Waistcoats and shrunken
jackets are worn over voluminous khaki, pink and deep purple
tie-dyed kaftans. Beachy jersey mini dresses in pale corals, sky
blues and lemons mix have graphic, digital ‘Aztec’ print
accessories. Embellished Ts and tunics with deep arm-holes bring
a hint of insouciance, when worn with khaki turn up shorts and faded
grey denim. Fringing, beading and leather strapping appears on sandals
and belts.
Iris
- This vintage inspired collection references delicate
prints and dresses of the 1940s through to 1970s' graphic prints.
Varying scales of florescent florals are key and appear on dark
background tea dresses with high waists and softly puffed sleeves.
Pretty blouses and ra-ra skirts with multi-layered frills and bow
fastenings are toughened by black trims and black patent detailing.
Monochrome, motif Ts are layered underneath belted, ditzy print
bandeau dresses. Pistachios, aubergines and tangerines are lifted
by sherbet colours. Paint box coloured sunglasses, round toe tap-shoe
and punched-leather wedges mix with natural leather satchels.
Maggie
- A collection of Harajuku inspired crisp, preppy separates has
an easy feel. Fine seersucker blouses and cropped boxy blazers appear
in multi-coloured ticking stripes. Capes and oversize cardigans
are layered over clean cut gingham shell-blouses and skinny and
carrot leg jeans. 1970’s style blue jeans, slouchy shorts
and ra-ra skirts work with cute logo Ts in young, primary colours
while 50s' style summer
dresses add sophistication. A palette of red, blue and white
dominates, highlighted with degrade citrus lemon and orange. Brightly
coloured t-bar flats, doctor and bowling bags complete the story.
Colourclash
- Saturated colour-blocking on body con jersey dresses with cut-out
details. Multi-layer strapping and modern cutting techniques reveal
backless one shouldered shapes while fluid oversize boyfriend jackets
and brightly coloured skinny
jeans soften the silhouette. Fabrics include Chintz, sheen mix,
high shine patents and powermesh. A palette of tangerine, magenta,
violet and new lipstick corals are given monochrome and solid black
backgrounds. Slick accessories include colour-block clutches and
statement shoes with high-shine overlasted platforms have cut-away
detailing.
