spring trend edit à la French Vogue

One thing fashion lacks, uniformity. I read no less than 10 different spring 2015 trend reports by various publications this weekend and no two lists were the same. Of course there are some overlaps, but there's even discord in naming the trends. Is it 70s revival? Return to Bohemia? An ode to everything fringed, suede, and flared? And even amongst the trends there's plenty of overlaps in terms of content. For example a denim, button down, pinafore could easily be filed under several categories-- 70s, denim, jumpsuits (ish.)

I don't see this lack in uniformity as a bad thing, though. Difference in opinion is always welcome. Without it the entire population would be dressed head to toe in the same, de-facto uniform. How boring would it be if every single street style shot was of the same pair of rockstuds, same dress, same Céline bag, and same artfully tousled lob?

For this installment of my own spring summer 2015 trend edit, I picked inspiration from this list published by Vogue Paris, because I believe in the power of Emmanuelle Alt.
