This spring we can bid farewell to unpractical and somewhat ridiculous last year trends like plastic, military and punk. The pieces introduced by designers this spring will obviously look great for two more seasons running.

Designers` denim has become an acceptable version of casual office wear. This season`s Chanel`s navy-blue denim trousers bear no visible difference from traditional cotton or wool business pants. Their more frivolous alternative – long shorts, or very long Capri, if you prefer, possess all attributes of traditional pants like flaps and pocket claps but are knee-long or a bit lower. The waist is back on its place, although low waist is known to ad symmetry to figure. The trouser silhouette has become more loose, but flat-front cut is still in vogue.

All of a sudden it there`s a trend not to match the costume`s top with it`s bottom: striped bottom and checkered top or a combination of different sized checkeres are in fashion.
