Process
Theme
We began by identifying key trends to shape a theme that embodied the prevailing Zeitgeist, translating it through our own perspective. As a team, we knew that we wanted to include sustainability into this theme, however we allowed ourselves the creative freedom to infuse it with other elements including modularity
Color & Textiles
For the next part of the process we chose colors that fit into our theme while also coordinating well with each other. We developed two color stories; one titled Admonitio and the other titled Sanguinity. Some example fabrics we chose were ECONYL® and Mycelium leather which aligned with our idea of sustainability.
Looks
For the final part of the project, we curated street and runway looks that captured our vision for the forecast. The first few looks were sorted into Modularity which corresponds with values such as sustainability, versatility, and customization. The next few looks were sorted into Trail Blazers which promotes a minimalistic wardrobe.
Outcome
The final Fashion Forecasting project was an influential experience during my curriculum. In this project, We worked as a team on analyzing market trends and consumer data to guide our forecast’s direction. I also tracked trend evolution and integrated insights to create a cohesive seasonal vision. This role allowed me to effectively contribute to our forecast’s relevance and impact, highlighting the importance of a data-driven approach in anticipating and setting trends.
