After looking at the Spring 2010 boards of collections I’ve been wanting for a couple of months to share this trend I had spotted on the runways. For Spring, designers had had a fascination for youth, not to mention it in a perverse way, but the iconic Lolita spirit was definitely around. With a combination of provocative little-girl frocks, quirky embellishments with floral or crystal embroideries, and innocent accessories like the bow-tie in the hair or the Chanel clogs. Pastel and bright colors, animal and floral prints were all over the place, designers pulled off extremely well what could be the summer’s “heat”.
