@Icegoddess 

I like geometric prints, but I won't do big puffy sleeves. There's supposed to be lots of sleeve details this year. 

@ECBG 

I agree with your list. I won't be wearing any of those trends either. 

@Desert Lily 

Not much on that list I will be wearing.

Other trends I've read about:

*floaty romantic florals

*cable knits

*futuristic space age designs 

 

Trending colors include shades of brown and lilac. I don't wear either of these colors very much, and I doubt I will buy anything in these colors. 

 

I own a few cable knit sweaters already. No space age designs for me.

 

I might try a flowy floral dress if I can find one that's subtle and in a print I like. I usually wear geometric, abstract, or solid color wrap or sheath dresses so a dress like this would definitely be out of my comfort zone. I would be willing to try a few on to see how they look.

I don't even have to see big puffy sleeves to know I won't be wearing them. Geometric prints, if they are minuscule in scale....maybe. The Herman Munster boots I keep seeing are heinous. 
Raise your hand if you are tired of animal and reptile prints!

Re: Trends from Fashion Week

I sometimes depend on new accessories like wraps, scarves, or jewelry to update my basics....black pants, sweaters in solid colors and thin knits, and low boots or shoes.
