Unveiling the Cherry Red Craze and the Newest Fashion Trends

By Maria Plaza

Cherry red, it's everywhere… used to represent the epitome of American women, young, innocent, feminine, and delicate with a pinch of sensuality. Nowadays, not only the standards but also the meaning of red has evolved to symbolize liberty, elegance, power and rebellion. It is mostly seen in leather items such as bags and shoes, especially jackets but can be used as any item. But how do we style it? According to the color wheel purple would work wonders, same as green, black, or white, if, however, you are into something a little more risque I suggest combining it with animal print.

Amongst the biggest trends, we can also find the increasing amount of sheer fabrics which if properly combined can add an interesting element to any outfit. Since summer will be coming along soon, the beach is a perfect excuse to wear transparent clothes or capri pants; you may hate them, or love them but it is a fact, they are making a comeback.

It is no surprise that the 90s and 2000s (also known as Y2K) have begun reappearing not only on runways but everywhere. In relation to 90’s fashion we have been seeing anything from high square necklines to clean lines, baggy jeans, slip dresses even bubble skirts, only seen in runways for now, but for how long? Regarding 00’s elements we are beginning to see again cargo pants, of course, graphic tees, sparkly clothes, low-rise jeans, long pointy boots, corsets and so much more.
