Paul Pelssers' Early Color & Trend Directions for Autumn/Winter 2007-2008 | WOMENSWEAR

Artistic

A feast of rich and jeweled shades celebrates
all that is luxurious, lustrous, ornamental and
sumptuous.

Yet, a mix of gypsy, country, Irish
and Russian influences shows a continuation
for unexpected mixes- often random and contradictory.

Natural

Pale blondes, golden touches, caramel hues
and deep dark brown make the newest neutrals
a key statement for the Fall season.

American Beauty becomes a key surprise accent
an adds an unexpected twist to the neutral family.

Romantic

A new mood of romance looks set to pervade
the season in shades that veer from pale and
dusty dark, deep and mysterious.

Fabrics are seen rich and decorative, or
alternatively, flat, matte, in flannel qualities or
menswear inspired.
