Main trends
Designers of famous fashion houses in the new season prefer linen, cotton, silk and delicate woolen fabrics. Models from such noble fabrics are the best able to emphasize the figure of a woman. Fur, leather clothes and classic woolen fabrics will also be equally popular. Fabrics with bright patterns and floral prints do not give up their positions. But still, the favorites of 2015 are jacquard, velvet, velveteen and flannel, which are associated with the mythical color of the East and the spirit of nature.
