Women's Accessories - Spring 2007

We have already seem numerous trend forecasts for Women's accessories in Spring 2007, I suspect you are thinking it is such a long way off, but if you are a designer then you have to work and manage many seasons in advance.

So what are the trends.... especially for handbags, well we shall take you through the thoughts from the catwalks.

Future Fashion
It seems that chucky designs are back - with cube shaped handbags from Jonathan Saunders, ultra modern chic and white and silver all take centre stage.

Jewels
Well I love the fact that bags will be glistening in the sunshine, with pearls, jewels and jems all on the calendar for spring 07. Marc Jacobs will certainly be embracing this with bags coated with large fake jems.

Straps
Gorgeous straps will be the theme, shouldn't be too hard to find bags with extra straps, long straps etc, this will compliment the footwear styles where T-bars and buckles will be back with a vengence.

Utility
Perfect for day and weekend bags will be the slouchy canvas bags, rucksacks filled with pockets and duffle style bags, these bags will be much more -ready-to-wear styles.

In addition, we shall see the usual black and white bags and 1980's style incorporating vibrant colours. With so many styles and themes I am sure there will be plenty to choose from.
