For boys, several key lifestyle trends are coloring the way we are approaching spring. The Green Scene is so important visually and in terms of color and concept that it is applied in two trends; Grasshopper and Gone Fishing. The Transformers trend with all of its new generation transformable and changeable silhouettes is seen as a subtext in Gone Fishing and in Ethnic Nomad while Globalization is seen in the Ethnic Nomad trend in the prints and in the silhouettes. Why do we keep bringing up Lifestyle Trends? Because they help to give us the elbow room we need to take a trend and make it something that our specific market will understand and it gives our audience an anchor to become emotionally involved, based on how they are already feeling! See the BIG 5 now!

This trend brings together the love of the great outdoors, the slower passing of time and an activity that was once the cornerstone of the father-son relationship. On a lighter note, it is a way of presenting a nautical theme that is less about the red-white and blue and more about what really goes on when a boy gets close to the water! Highly detailed clothing means more space to store worms and outdoors supplies. Roll up pants and detailed Bermudas double as clean wear or as a quick-change look for action packed fun while shirts and sleeveless hoodies are layered and also feature storage space. Warmly colored plaids, stripes and knit patterns give the theme its visual edge. Yellow is your pop color of choice along with white and green for pop.
