Sphere keeps a close eye on what is trending in fashion. As Fashion Week recently ended for New York, London, Milan, & Paris it’s time to analyze the colors, textures and aesthetics that stood out and may have an impact on what we will soon wear and style our homes with.

By Susan Yashinsky, Sphere Trending VP, Innovation Trends

With climate change accelerating, there is a new urgency for action and consumer demand for sustainable lifestyles as well as products. At the same time, and not unrelated, we understand how important nature is to our wellbeing. There is more mobility to rural areas, greater indoor/outdoor living spaces, an understanding of biophilic design principles and an appreciation for weekend camping and hiking.
