Retail Trend Analysis Milan Resort Cruise New Season Spring Summer 2009  RETAIL  trend analysis Milan  published 25 January 2009 - 29 pages 11322-11350
We’ve analysed the latest Resort, Spring/Summer and Cruise Collections to hit the stores early in Milan. There are exciting developments in shape, structure, fabrics and prints to give you inspiration for the summer ahead.

skirts&trousers - Fuller, softer skirts take over from the structured styles that have been popular through the autumn/winter season. Latest trouser shapes are cropped around the ankle, and have a tapered, slim fit. 
dresses - Latest buzz words for spring/summer dresses are asymmetric, batwing and printed. The most popular shapes are shirt-styled sacks, printed strappy sundresses, peasant-style tunics and skinny jersey dresses.
jackets&coats - Tailored jackets are single breasted with a one or two button fastening, while boxy-styles have a '50s-style silhouette. Cape-like effects continue into coats where wider, kimono-style sleeves are prevalent. Dress coats and trench styles are great for mid-season.
tops&blouses - The new resort collections feature soft draped tops with cowl necklines in sleeveless shell shapes. Shirt styles throw the emphasis onto the sleeve area which features clever details or bold fullness.
