Horizantal stripes flatter the figure

Vertical stripes don't flatter – they make you look fatter

Horizontal, not vertical, stripes have slimming effect

The fashion gurus have got it all wrong, claims an expert in visual perception. Far from making you look thinner, wearing clothes with vertical stripes will accentuate your girth.

Wearing horizontal stripes makes you look thinner, according to new research – contrary to widely held belief that vertical stripes are more flattering to the figure.

The discovery was presented at the British Association for the Advancement of Science (BA) Festival of Science, held in Liverpool, England, last week.

 SUMMER 2012 TRENDS FROM COLLECTION OF      

ARISTOCRATIE

This theme explores the unexpected, contrasts and fancy geometry. It stretches asymmetry and stylised plant motifs into natural or arabesque shapes. Against myriad different backdrops and ornamental foliage, lace produces fascinating, complex effects on geometric and organic motifs. It’s a world unto its own, shrouded in mystery yet with a sophisticated, contemporary edge. Dotted Swiss lace provides a contemporary, dynamic blend in which graphic and geometric effects mingle with netting and lightweight dotted lace, for a carefree, poetic allure. Tints are shaded and tangy, in a neo-military spirit mixing camouflage and organic motifs to produce a masculine-feminine style that’s truly attuned to the times.

NILIT announces its new trend concepts for bodywear and active-sports wear for Spring-Summer 2012, which will be presented in the NILIT BODYFASHION TRENDBOOK.

Spring-Summer 2012 marks an era which emphasizes a more wholesome existence by replacing the material excesses of the pre-recession society with a new value system and a broader vision of the world. Consumers are adapting to a new model of living based on a future which combines technology with a sense of consideration and awareness of society’s collective responsibility."

For bodywear and activewear, design extends beyond aesthetics. Once more technology meets creativity as the leading fashion trends underscore the product’s value by emphasizing innovation and performance. Innovation embodies the search for new discoveries and solutions with an accelerated sense of urgency as we seek a stable path for future growth and renewed opportunity.

Innovation is the key at NILIT and our consistent leadership in technology and innovation sets the standard for nylon 6.6 yarns globally. NILIT’s unique and diverse products continue to open new creative vistas which inspire a new generation of state-of-the art products that express the latest fashion trends and are in perfect harmony with the environment.

Today’s mega-trends which inspire yarn technology and innovation are ECO-DESIGN, SENSUAL LUXURY, COLORFUL FLEXABILITY, DYNAMIC VERSATILITY, WELLBEING & COMFORT and ENVELOPING PROTECTION. The NILIT Trendbook recommends the yarns needed to create the dynamic products which will lead the fashion trends for the coming season.

BODYWEAR:

The Trendbook defines three BODYWEAR trends for SUMMER 2012 and highlights the yarn innovations best suited to these trends:

ORIGINS (Mega-Trend: WELLBEING & COMFORT.) ORIGINS evoke a new sense of spirituality, an affinity with the world of nature and a rediscovery of the instincts buried deep within us. The trend embodies a return to innocence expressed in an up-dated vintage look and fine-gauge knits with a natural touch.

Inspired by the elements of earth and sky, the focus is on lightness and fabrics which boast softness, comfort and excellent shape retention. An authentic natural handle and heathered effect can be created from NILIT Arafelle yarn.

S/S 2012 Beachwear Trends from Eurojersey Sensitive

Beachwear Trends for S/S 2012 from Eurojersey Sensitive

There are different themes for the various times of the day: in spas or health centres, in the pool, during competitions, and a glamorous look for confidence and maximum comfort at a party or a drink before dinner on the beach.

Chlorine: This theme features the SUPERFAST COLORS treatment that ensures the colours will stand up to frequent washing for extended periods and prevents them from rubbing off when damp clothes are left next to each other for a long time in conditions which are not ideal, such as in bags after sporting activities and trips to the swimming pool or the beach. Sensitive® Life is designed for use in swimming pools and competitions, meaning that resistance to chlorine is important. It is light and ultra-thin, giving excellent elasticity, maximum comfort and quick drying times. Thanks to Sensitive® Power, a technical fabric with superior containment capacities, it boosts performances in races and is resistant to the corrosive effects of chlorine and the loss of elasticity, even after many hours of exposure to pool water.
