Of all the trends that made their way down the Fall 2012 runways, none seems to be proliferating quite like the look of brocade.  It just explodes with opulence and captures the feeling of royal adornment like no other.  The boldness stands alone here letting a great dress of coat stand alone as you strut down our own concrete runway.  If you’re feeling a little shy on the trend, no worries, the brocade trend has already spilled over to a surplus of shoes, bags and other such accessorizing goodies.

The second step comes from innovation and how the designer wants to translate his story through technology.  One print trend surfacing for 2012 is a new technique known as ‘under the microscope.”  Read On…
