Hot off the trade show floor, the Trendstop trend experts bring you all of the latest denim trends emerging at the latest edition of Denim Première Vision. From May 27-28 2015, the Fira Montjuïc in Barcelona opened its doors to nearly 100 weavers, manufacturers, launderers and finishers, all debuting their new designs for the Fall/Winter 2016-17 season. A key industry event for all things denim, this season's main theme was 'Denim Constellation', allowing visitors to explore new innovations influenced by technical colours and creative uses of natural materials. As part of the out-of-this-world theme, the Trendstop team have analysed the wide range of collections showcased at Denim Première Vision to bring you Cosmic Landings, a directional F/W16 denim trend that demonstrates forward ways to update surface, texture and print.

Cosmic Landings

This season, denim collections are made to resemble a distant planetary surface, resulting in styles with speckled surface finishes. This treatment can be executed through the weave of the fabric itself, or alternatively with the application of flecked tonal prints. Both methods produce tactile effects, which can be used to update a range of garments, from blue wash jeans to darker-toned utility pieces.

Fall/Winter denim looks as though it has been salvaged from deep underground, on show in rugged styles with an earthy feel. Across shirts and jeans alike, we see blue denims treated with brown-tinted washes and mattified finishes, as details like buttons take on an aged, worn-in look.
