Women Spring/Summer Season Outerwear
As it is known, even in the warm spring-summer season outerwear is required, but this year hardly any absolutely new directions can be outlined in its modeling.
Of course, vivid, unusual models were presented on the catwalks of high fashion, but no one expects great success from them among the mass consumer.
Among the models making commercial success, there are several major trends.
Light shapeless cloaks
The softness and lack of structure are the key characteristics of light spring and summer coats, creating elegant, feminine image of gently rounded shoulder line, short or 3 / 4 sleeves and a belt, emphasizing the waist.
It is impossible not to notice how good all the elements of design are balanced: wide lapels are harmoniously combined with a trapezoidal flared skirt, bringing in the image something windy and frivolous. Finishing of the sleeves is organized in the form of loops fastened by buttons or rolled cuffs.
Basic colors: white, gray and muted summer tones of pale, luminous ultra blue.
Basic materials: cotton fabric, linen or polished cotton, jersey, canvas.
New macintosh
Macintosh, the favorite classical model of designers, traditionally changes from season to season. Novelties of spring and summer 2009 include “crumpled effect” black and white and color finishing transitions. The desire of designers to light volume is realized in the decor with feminine frills.
Basic colors: gray, neutral shades of corporal, ultra-luminous blue, purple.
Basic materials: “crumpled” cotton fabric, taffeta, satin.

Summer coats, raincoats
Last impressions of 2009 summer season collections are limited to a small number of summer coats, as in this season designers’ attention was devoted entirely to light waterproof models.
Broad shapeless silhouettes of light or transparent materials, for example, shiny fabrics and nylon – obviously, will be a hit of this season.
The main colors: white, gray and neutral tones.
Basic Materials: clear plastic, silky nylon, fabric with shiny trim, air taffeta, and lightweight rubberized cotton fabric.
White model
If you dwell on the color, the most popular are the light and bright colors.
Impractical, but not losing their popularity white models, differ with minimalism of finishing and details.
Metallic
As in the past spring-summer season, popular color is metallic, giving the image brightness, glamour and modern femininity.
Vivid colors
Of course, the bright colors in outerwear of spring-summer season are actual trends of 2009 as well.
This can be an extraordinary cloak for extravagant women from Nina Ricci – whether a dress, or coat in orange, light pink and gray colors.
And maybe you will more like monotonous Trench up to the knee – bright yellow from MaxMara or bright blue from Celine, or color blocks proposed by Marni.
