All the pictures are from the SS 09 shows. No, this isn't a trend its more of a tip for the readers on wearing plaid in summer. Why I chose this topic is because a lot of people try to do this but end up looking disastrous. How you can change this you ask? Well firstly it's because a lot of people wear dark coloured plaids. No, I don't mean black or dark blue. I mean the wintery looking colours like brown. Wear plaids in brighter colours like blue or orange (as shown in the above pictures). Also the fabric that you should be wearing for summer is mostly cotton or some other lighter fabric. Try to find a plaid in cotton (maybe a pair of shorts or a maybe a shirt).
