17. Trend 3: The Recycled Look (Image 17 of 26)
According to the Crown Trend Panel, thrift, recycling, rescuing and renewing are hot topics. We are all, whether out of financial necessity or desire, beginning to take old accessories and materials and use them for entirely new purposes. It’s all about making do and mending rather than buying new. The colours in this section are diverse to reflect this trend, with winning combinations of cool greens and pale yellows offset with intense flashes of red and orange. They create a feeling of being worn and used, not shiny and new. Reusing embraces the unusual and individual and creates a miscellaneous haberdashery of colours and designs that sit stylishly out of context. Ideal for the living room, bedroom and ktichen, this look is all about being casual.
