Trend Flash™ Maison Et Objet

January 24, 2010 By Trend Staff -

Michelle Lamb, Editorial Director for The Trend Curve, is in Paris for the Maison et Objet fair. Her topline trends are below.

COLOR
–       Purple was everywhere, with cool tones directional
–       Blues were called out as trend colors
–       Camel and Cocoa types renewed the Brown family
–       Pinks prepared for a major role
–       Real Red backed off, but Burgundy dug in
–       New Greens: Spearmint, Olive, Evergreen

MATERIALS AND TEXTURES
–       Glass gravitated toward transparent color
–       Pipe began to pop up in product
–       Cords and straps got lots of attention
–       Velvet looked newest with heat-treatment textures
–       Knits’ position in the textiles realm continued to rise
–       Metallics dropped way back—except on permanent flower blossoms

MOTIFS AND STYLES
–       Photo looks got going as surface designs
–       Stripes still preferred thin widths
–       Architectural elements quietly advanced
–       Chaotic line patterns came back
–       Geometry had an impact on form and pattern
