This brochure is a sample copy of the Trends Guide, created for a short
presentation on the project and the contents of the complete book.
The Ars Sutoria Trends Guide is specifically developed for designers and
merchandisers who have to create collections in the field of shoes & bags.
The typical workflow of a company has to deal not only with creativity and
trends but also with marketing, merchandising and technical development.
Thanks to the connection between the publishing house and the Ars Sutoria
School we are in the conditions to offer a unique tool.
This publication is issued twice a year: in January and June.

CONTENT OF THE BOOK
Four major trends on worldwide lifestyle, deeply analyzed offering unique
insights and ideas. Each trends is divided in three sections:
CONCEPT: This first section presents and introduces the inspirational and
creative trend themes.
It explains the main basic concepts of the theme and then specifies the key
colours and the proportions in which they will be used. Images introduce the
atmosphere of the trend, together with materials and a selection of iconic
shoes and bags.
CONSUMER PROFILE: This section is intended to focus the market positioning
of the collection. Each trend is more related to a specific consumer profile.
We identify the target consumer of each trend looking at: where he lives,
what he likes to do during his free time, which are the opinion leaders he
follows, what retails concepts he likes more, which goods he desires to buy,
websites he surfs, music he listen to. At the end of the section you can find
a list of brands that can be analyzed as competitors or reference brands.
COLLECTION PLANNING: The first question to be answered at this point
– always considering that the collection will be created inside a company –
concerns the investments in the development of new structures/materials.
This means understanding, for each of the four trends, whether to focus more
on investing in structures (designs of new soles and heels with consequent
mould opening, etc.) or to focus more on purchasing new materials for
“dressing up” the existing products in order to enliven the collection.
MERCHANDISING THE TREND: to better illustrate the key structures
or materials, we have selected a range of sample shoes and bags,
highlighting the most commercially viable brands.
Photos can be easily found on arstrends.com website, a footwear
and leathergoods overview.
SKETCHING THE TREND: the work ends with a real stylistic
proposal, a sample collection of designs with structured themes
and balanced offering of the most conceptual and refined ideas,
as well as simpler and more commercial products.
MATERIALS FOR THE TREND: close to the sketches, we have
provided material references from Italian suppliers. A final section
recaps materials and components that best match each trend.

Mash-Up
Concept
Picking out and superimposing a mix of cultures. Aesthetic styles
typical of the last century, between rustic and Japanese pop.

that dictated the styles of the XX Century. From retro design
to pop art. The new artistic currents turn to contemporary pop,
graphic and colourful, natural and organic.
Colours
Colour palettes that underline a surreal taste to combine
unusual tones. Orange and green. Chocolate and neon yellow.
Turquoise and shocking pink. Lime and lipstick red. Black and
black. Military green and burgundy.
The entire color palette and color combination with Pantone® references is available in
the Trends Guide complete book.

New metropolitan daywear has an American/Asian feel. The

who have grown up in the US dictate fresh rules in American
and European dress. They design pragmatic products of
excellent quality/price ratio, starting from models proven on
the market which they elaborate with innovative details.

Rock
the grunge
Concept
The new rock is subversive because it combines wild and
rebellious grunge with the minimalism of English classics.
A style direction taken by the new generation of designers led
by Hedi Slimane, Raf Simons, Givenchy, Balmain. Starting from
typical icons of the English rock world, strict and minimal, the
new rock becomes elegant and classical, austere and severe.
Colours
Tar black is rock. Leather brown is grunge, blood-red English,
psychedelic blue is rock. Tones darken in all the colour palettes,
taking on mirror, reflective, polished, velvety, shaded effects.
The entire color palette and color combination with Pantone® references is available in
the Trends Guide complete book.

Materials
The rock+grunge+minimal+English classic ingredients are
expressed in a mixture of leather treatments: destroyed +
brushed + patent, craquelet + filled + pony, shaved + waxed
- laser processes. Perforated effects on thin rigid hide. Fluid
nappa. Crocodile of raised scales. Rock version fish skin.
Brushed, varnished and reflective in tones and the consistency
of tar. Worn and torn effects. Crusts moulded with dry wax and
powdery shades.

The gourmet
Concept
A gourmet, as we know, is a person of cultivated tastes who
demands the enjoyment of good food and drink. The gourmet
of fashion, like that of food, is a connoisseur, a person who
has the foundation of classical style, then carried through to
Italian country and English heritage. As for food, the passion
for accessories is defined by a search for tastes and flavours
that are intense, sharp, full bodied. A lifestyle that combines a
passion for the authentic, genuine, typical of a place or a style.
Colours
The chromatic effects form a range of browns, fresh and
new. These can verge on red, burnt orange, indigo blue,
military green, woodland earth and bark of scented trees.
The shades can vary according to dyes and treatments of
full bodied leathers.
The entire color palette and color combination with Pantone® references is available in
the Trends Guide complete book.
key words
Materials
Real leather, authentic and genuine, on which to try out
experimental treatments and invent new finishes, chromatic
effects and grains. Craftsmanship and industry meet in the
natural world to experiment with shaving, abrasion, creams
and waxes of new generation but of organic origin. Brushed,
crackled, distressed. Shaved and polished pony. Precious
reptiles. Anaconda and alligator treated with softening oils
and waxes. Thick and luminous velvets. Wool, cashmere and
Shetland materials. Colour-dipped crust.

with sample materials commonly used in the factories and at the
end of the program using production materials (leathers, textiles,
synthetics and fur).
