There are trends and then there is the collective unconscious--a trend you might find in a silhouette or textile but the collective unconscious goes beyond those basic similarities. Above, Preen and Phillip Lim both showed cool tones with red sandals. In both instances there was an ease that was made possible by tiered ruffles. Below that, Chloe and Proenza Schouler both paired green men's shirts with brown, loose fitting bottoms and red sandals. In both cases the shirt was tucked in and the models long blonde hair was left cascading over her shoulders. Of the four examples you could call the red shoe the trend and the rest--well, it's just too close to call.
