Trend Watch: Optical Prints

The S/S 09 fascination with the bold and the vibrant was showcased nowhere better than at Alexander McQueen, where models strutted the runway in shattered crystal print shifts in vivid hues of red, yellow, turquoise and blue. The trend for graphic patterns continued at Peter Pilotto, where the designer's signature prints took on a SCI-FI like quality. The colour palette at Miu Miu was more muted: earthy tones created a geological look. Whilst at Narciso Rodriguez, monochrome prints formed a stark contrast against this season's dizzying brights.
