Bologna Linea Pelle

How trends? Ten days ago I went to Bologna to go to Linea Pelle, the fair dedicated to the world's most important leather, where I had the chance not only to peek what will be new in spring summer 2013, but also to talk with people in the industry and with whom the known trends. Yes, because when we talk about trends we think always parades and inserts that the fashion magazines publish, but who really decides what will be fashionable and what not are not the fashion houses but experts make this craft.

Returning to the original question, how trends, here's the answer: is a mix of four ingredients. World Economic and political situation, experience, market research and, of course, creativity.

Another important thing that I learned about the skin, instead just a material from the great potential that can be processed and treated in several ways, as evidenced by the photos that you see in the post.

Next year nothing black nail studded detail, set the textures and colors;-)
