New York Fashion Week is already underway, and if you don’t have time to attend the shows but need to know what is coming for the fall season, Doneger Creative Services can help. As a subscriber, you can view designers' collections shortly after they make their way down the catwalk. The Runway Report continuously updates the collections and focuses your attention on the most important trends.
Moving forward, let's talk about what's coming up for Fall 2010. Color Concept, with its 47 Pantone-matched colors and suggested color combinations for different markets, is ready for viewing and purchasing.
The Pantone View Colour Planner starts shipping February 20. The Pantone View Colour Planner is reality-tested, money making color and trend forecasting for ladies and men, cosmetic, home and interior designs. It is a resource used all around the world, focusing on the needs of all regions.
In March, the Pantone View home + interior (published once a year) will also be available for home colors and trends for the year of 2010.
Because there is a fundamental change in consumer behavior during these difficult times, retail planning is extremely important. Paul Pelssers in his monthly New York Retail Report shows you the successes of retail -- items that are fashion-right and how to merchandise them in the stores.
