Fashion is such a difficult thing, it is changeable and capricious, like a real woman, while in winter she thinks about summer, and in summer she remembers about winter. It is so difficult to keep track of it, but do not forget that sometimes it repeats itself.

In winter 2012, sweater-dresses and high boots will still be in vogue. But fabrics and furs will delight with all the colors of the rainbow. So velvet, colored velvet will be in vogue. Jackets, dresses, handbags, skirts and even shorts made of this material can be seen in almost any collection, the most striking example is the blue velvet harem pants from Carlos Miele. Fur, without which it is impossible to imagine winter, it is a pity that winter is not in a hurry this year, as colorful as velvet.

But now it is known for sure that the owners of such furs will not be afraid of depression.
