Ideas...

I have decided to focus on forecasting for 2013, aiming to create two trends for Spring Summer 2013 and two trends for Autumn Winter '13/14.

So far i have decided to base my trends on...

- The Solar Flare Warning that could disrupt out electronics and set us back 100years, predicted to happen July 2013.

- The Remake of the film Dirty Dancing due to arrive on our screens at some point in 2013.

- How the Middle Class are stuck within the economic climate. The rich are staying rich the poor are getting poorer and the middle class are frozen in the middle. I want to expand on the idea of Stuck in Time.

- Control. This is still a working progress however at the moment i am thinking of looking at Abuse whether that be Domestic or Child Abuse, to influence a clothing trend.
