Discovered an interesting blurp about how Finnish Fall fashions will be more conservative due to the recession. Helsinki Times explains how "sobriety & sustainability" will be two key themes to watch for. Predictions include return to classic cuts, couture will be harder to find, and a combination of grays, blacks, and violets will appear more often (these colors are indicators of wealth). It's interesting to see how fashion abroad has and will be affected especially since typically trends start in Europe & eventually make their way to the U.S. It will be interesting to see how this affects the US now and in the future.
