SCAD Atlanta students share their thoughts and opinions on this month’s most popular fashion trends.

Zebra print

Fourth-year fashion marketing and management student Tanya Mehta said, “I feel like animal print will always be in and out of fashion, I haven’t seen a lot of it on social media but I’m also not too big of a fan of zebra prints so I’m not too keen if it’ll stick around.”

Cecilia Xie, a fourth-year fashion student commented, “I like the blue and white on this bag, but the zebra print doesn’t seem like the trend for this year. But people who love zebra print will definitely get it. And for me, since the blue color is the trend I will buy this because of the color, not the print.”

Loafers

Fourth-year fashion student Elizabeth Erwin said, “I think loafers have become a popular trend because they can be the perfect mix of sophisticated and stylish. I love J. Crew’s loafers, the fur inside give them the perfect opportunity for winter. I love the plaid print to give an extra flair.”

Fourth-year fashion marketing and management student Ember Nguyen mentioned, “Loafers are so amazing and easy to wear. It keeps coming back like a cycle. It is one of the must-have items in every women’s and men’s closet. I think the loafers will stay but the colors and patterns will move along with the trend’s zeitgeist.”

Checks

Jane Chao, fourth-year fashion marketing and management student said, “I love checks, especially the small ones. I think they’re easy and good to match on any clothes whether it is leather, jeans or lace.”
