So the time has come again for fashion week to grace us with an appearance and then go flying by yet again! With fashion weeks in New York and London already gone and Milan and Paris on their way to hitting us we are right in the middle of the fashion week season!

The trends for spring/ summer 2012 are bigger and better than ever, showing us that fashion has no intention of slowing down or staying safe.

So what were the big jaw dropping collections and the trends to watch out for I hear you scream well..

Prints

Prints, patterns and florals are going to be massive next season with the likes of Mary Katantzou, Erdem, Dolce & Gabbana, Anna Sui and  Christopher Kane showing that there really is no clashing of patterns and that all colours under the sun can be combined together to create an outstanding garment. So make sure you are top to toe in prints and you will be a fashion hit!

Geometic prints

Geometic prints are big with designers experimenting with different shape combinations. Vivienne Tam, Helmet Lang and Nicole miller are all following this look!

Sports

Being sporty is a key look for next season. With the reworked parka and mesh clothing. Watch out for zips, toggles, mesh and the sporty feel. Rag and Bone and Alexander Wang are all over this trend.

The Tribal Feel

The summer always brings us the tribal looks. With leather, suede and animal prints being big yet again. Check out Thakoon, Donna Karen and Michael Kors, for how to wear the tribal feel without looking like a tribal warrior.
