Colorful Animations come to life...

Just imagine vivid bright colors in soldier uniforms, tailored clothes, angular shapes, and romantic and simple outfits. When you see these images, what do you really see? Romantic adventures? Wild and fun parties? Scenes from Toys in Wonderland or Wizard of Oz? No. Welcome to Spring Fashions 2009.
Enter March 20st, the first day of Spring, with wonderment and excitement, as you enjoy the colors of the flowers, the breezy weather, the sunshine, the musical birds, and the humming quartet of bees.
Dress for success in elegant tailored clothes that are inspired from the 1950s, but in off-white and cream colors. Romantic styles are modernized, but have a Gothic accent. Large brim hats are worn with billowy sleeves and skirts, and the color of the hat matches the outfit. A trendy look for jackets include soldier uniforms, but such jackets are colorful and fun rather than austere and staid.
Clean and simple lines in beige and nude styles have a futuristic and elegant look. Also, geometric designs in black and white combination have an asymmetrical and modern look.
Soft and feminine styles are very popular in Spring, as usual, with the continuation of ruffles, draping and tiers in dresses and blouses.
But the main accent for this Spring is the Asian inspiration, whether on clothes, shoes, accessories, makeup, and hairstyles. Along with the geometric designs, there is also a geometric style in hair. Bobs are cut angular, longer in the front and short in the back, and bangs are cut straight across. Such bobs are dyed black.
And, for the nighttime, it is time to sparkle and shine in sequin, sheer and other shiny fabrics. Cocktail dresses, evening dressing and pantsuits should be in the colors of red, black, white and gold. Lacy white dresses continue the romance for Spring. Dresses tend to have an a-line flare at the ends.
