Graphic tee’s are definitely going to be big for this summer’s festival season 2012. The biggest trends to look out for are: Grungy/Hippie girls - Birds – Photographs with Slogans – Patriotism – Love Hearts – Colourful City Skylines  

SS12 catwalks were full of colour – both tropical brights and soft pastels. Floral prints were widely seen (Erderm, Alice +Olivia, Blumarine), and laces/prints with a 3D floral element (Louis Vuitton, Christopher Kane).
