DESCRIPTION
Lifestyle Trendbook
Citation preview
As by definition, the term ‘reparation’ means “the making amends for wrong” with synonyms such as atonement and renewal following right behind. In many other languages, the term relates to money, repairing simple things such as kitchenappliances, and even as a duty to repair a relationship with someone because of an unkind remark against them. The word itself is even written and spoken the same as it is in the English version in some countries, and what a perfect way to create a universal way to begin a trend of unification and purification.
The lifestyle trend book for the Fall and Winter 2014 and 2015 season will consist of themes that will not only address the overall theme, which is “Reparation”, but will further go into detail and tend to the daily life- furniture, fashion, life, and much more. Trends such as Escapism”, “Humble Luxury”, “Purity”, “Inviolability”, and “Reborn and Revived” all consist of detailed information such as exploring spirituality, the beauty of black and white, and growing from within. Reparation is a time for ourselves, but it is also a lifestyle and a trend for the Fall and Winter 2014 and 2015 season.
With so much confusion in the world, we are struggling to find our own identity in the world. Television takes form of human and dictates who we should be, and magazines become alive as we stand with barcodes in the check out line. With all the commotion, it is almost as if we become characters who push the doors to our own haven and discover serenity. No more struggling and ripping at the seams. Instead, we chose to quietly break free without causing any commotion. We float into Tomas Saraceno’s trampoline, break into unknown paths, explore flying fashion, and find colors similar to the seas. Welcome to escapism.
MATT WISNIEWSKI COMBINES USES PHOTOSHOP TO COMBINE OLD AND NEW. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, RESEMBLES THE SEA AND ESCAPISM.

HUMBLE LUXURYA newfound richness of spiritually in our hands has left us with a hunger for our insides and not necessarily for our materialistic belongings. But our creativity still wishes that it will catch up with the mind and explore what is deep inside, but not what was before. A stirring pot of Rena Dumas, Emily Dickinson, and Paulo Coelho makes for a perfect lifestyle. Imagine baskets, poems of thriving and sometimes falling, stories of passion of the heart, and text that has the ability to last for centuries. What a humble life- but it will cost you!

The word “purity” no longer consists of just the color white. We live in a society that if we address the word pure and we think of such a color, we are considered simple-minded. There are more colors few and between that strike our eyes that shout something that denote the sense of pure. However, old photographs and looking at a different time gives us a sense of “purity”- an escape of the world we are living in today. Even if we look at the photographs of ourselves as younger children, we think of how pure we once were and how innocent we were- when time was not as rough, and we were not as exposed to so much. Finding yourself in black and white is as pure as it gets- without a suggestion as to your ethnicity or background.
“Black is modestand arrogant at thesame time. Black is lazy and easy- but mysterious.But above all black says this: ‘I don’t bother you-don’t bother me.’”

INVIOLABILITYThe most controversial subject has found its way to the trend line. Spirituality and religion has become something quite fond to others and a topic that others were enflamed by, especially since the scare of “2012”. However, that was not necessarily the nudge that needed to move people towards this direction. A need for a cleanse or even a need for help is what others were looking for. People are receiving help for their addictions or other situations they are trapped in, or realizing their dreams and potentials. People are finding balance of negativity and positivity; their yin and yang. Pieces of cultures have traveled so far and we have finally welcomed many new ways of enhancing ourselves. It has even trickled down in our fashion. What a fashionable way to stay serene!

REBORN AND REVIVEDGrowth, no matter the subject is what we most look forward to. As human beings, we would look forward to measuring ourselves as children and how far up we would grow when we were children. We measure our pockets, the amount of cars, the amount of whatever it may be, but nowadays- we measure our inner selves. Our inner selves is dying to come out and by saying that, art is relating to that, fashion, and we express ourselves through that on the streets and everywhere we go. What we once used to measure no longer matters. What once was metaphorical is now written on paper and facing you. You are growing. You are being reborn and you are revived.
