"What we're finding today is, young and former, everyone wants to be fashionable still comfy. So the discussion comfort is no longer a bad discussion. Information technology's all about, how do nosotros brand the comfort stylish?" Gallin said.
READING THE COLORS OF A CRYSTAL BALL

But it also creates palettes and "color stories" for each season that reverberate market inquiry and the cultural moment, ultimately predicting what trends and preferences volition be a yr from at present. Those in the fashion industry — and other businesses, such as florists, interior designers and makeup artists — then plan appropriately, incorporating these colors into their designs, retail purchases and more.

Colors include "livelier and sharper" pinks, oranges with hot coral tones, languid lavenders, forest-inspired neutrals, make clean and modern pastels and brights of diverse tones.
WAVING A MAGIC WAND
… or pushing the push button on a seemingly-magic car. The wearable technology section of MAGIC's sourcing hall features technological advancements with the potential to streamline the dress development procedure from design to manufacturing and therefore conserve fourth dimension and resources.
Blue Dragon 3-D printers, for example, allow designers to whip up prototypes for a fraction of the cost, then apace make adjustments and print out another i. And, by creating them in their own space, they don't have the added risk of sending off their coveted designs when they need something created.
