Top Fashion Trends for 2013

Are you looking for the Top Fashion Trends for 2013, including the top Jeans Trends for 2013? Then you've come to the right place! The Spring/Summer 2013 runways were filled with details such as lace, nautical stripes, mixed prints, pops of red, as well as the return of basic blacks and greys. Some designers stuck with the glittery embelishments of last season, but in a more masculine way. Denim is still a really huge trend, as we move into 2013. Expect the 70's inspired denim trend from 2012 to get even bigger in 2013, as we see the re-introduction of the denim vest. Colorful Skinny Jeans were really big this past Spring/Summer, so look for that to still be on trend, but also know that pale colored denim (circa 80's) is on the move up. If you want to find out which fashion trends to watch out for 2013, then check out the following up-to-date fashion report!

Color made a huge appearance in 2012, but for 2013 the trend has been scaled back, so look for more of a pop of color of pink or red against masculine colors like black and grey. Colorful prints are still on trend, as well as color blocking and mixing mixed print pieces together. Designers this season really stepped out of the box with fearless combinations of mixing different textures of lace, wool, leather, chiffon and even feathers. Also, look for colorful shoes to still be a huge trend in 2013, as they were recently seen both on the New York Fashion Week runways, as well currently represent a top European Fashion trend right now.

BANGS

After a one-year hiatus from our list, blunt bangs are back, and top fringe goes to adorkable Zooey Deschanel. Hairstylist Danilo, who tends her tresses, suggests bangs that are longer on the sides and shorter across the forehead, “just dusting the eyebrows.” To get fringe to lie flat, he directs hair forward and down with a brush while blow-drying, “It’s really important they lie in place with minimal volume, which can quickly look dated,” Danilo says. In Montana, clients at the Living Room salon, according to owner Jolie Kiser, want “classic styles that are still fresh and fun,” making Deschanel’s retro-chic bangs “a huge hit.”

BOB

Cameron Diaz turned heads when she walked the Oscars’ red carpet with a wispy, chin-length bob. America took notice too, awarding it the third most-requested cut. Diaz’s longtime stylist, Lona Vigi, “kept the length a bit shorter in the back, leaving the bangs and sides longer for a sexier feel,” she says. To style, section off hair and blow-dry with a round brush “to give body at the roots.” The cut’s functionality makes it a hot request in the City of Brotherly Love. “Philly is a walking city—women need a cut that won’t lose its shape in the wind and humidity,” says Giovanni Mele, owner of Giovanni & Pileggi salon.

LONG LAYERS

America’s hair hall of fame has a new inductee: Sofía Vergara. The actress’s long, layered waves inched out last year’s winner, Kim Kardashian, for most lusted-after style. “Sofía has made nighttime hair work for morning, noon, and night,” says her stylist, Jen Atkin. After blow-drying straight with a round brush, Atkin wraps two-inch sections around a curling iron, leaving the ends loose to avoid tight ringlets. Michael Barsamian, owner of Boston’s Mizu salon, says the Hollywood-inspired style is popular among the city’s young professionals. “The layers add just enough lift to keep the cut looking fresh.”

PIXIE

Jason Segel isn’t the only one enamored with Michelle Williams. The actress’s cropped cut garnered the most requests, jumping from last year’s third-place standing. “The cut is low-maintenance and more versatile than you think,” says freelance hairstylist Thomas Dunkin, who works with Williams. When her hair is damp, he brushes down the shorter back and sides, then uses his hands to smooth the longer length on top. The cut is particularly popular in steamy climates. “Even when the temperature reaches triple digits, the pixie looks put together and effortless,” says Rachel Gower, owner of Houston’s The Upper Hand salon.
