  1. Trend takeaway: Pastel palette introduced last year has infused a big game this year to feminine silhouettes and cuts. The forever plaids and bold checks didn’t loose the grip. This summer layer up your rose printed maxi dresses and skirts without a doubt! Sheer play and quirky printed off shoulder tops will be the chic trend. Traditional weaves and handlooms will be all over.  samant
