Funky Floral Fashion - Peter Som Spring 2012 Collection is All About Flower Power (TrendHunter.com)

RockstarPeter Som Spring 2012 Collection is All About Flower Power

You don’t have to be a fashion insider (or even like fashion all that much) to know that the 60s are back in a big way next season, and the Peter Som Spring 2012 collection was nothing if not a flashback to the days of flower power and mod silhouetes.

The Peter Som Spring 2012 collection showcased bright and punchy floral prints, from oversized roses—in practically every hue, from tangerine to electric blue—to more subtle, but still stand-out, painterly petals. The cuts, elegantly styled after the fashions of the Swingin’ Sixties, comprised boxy silhouettes including a tweed jacket, a day dress and a chic skirt suit. The swimwear was definitely retro, with high-cut briefs and bandeau tops; perfectly accenting the poolside looks were cute, round black sunnies.

Blooming Timepieces - The Luna Watch Concept Tells Time Using LED Flower Petals (TrendHunter.com)

SuperstarThe Luna Watch Concept Tells Time Using LED Flower Petals

Telling time using flowers is usually a bad idea, unless you are telling time using the Luna Watch concept. Designer Nigel Roddy has dreamed up a watch that tells time using LED flowers.

The Luna Watch concept is designed to look more like a wristband than an actual watch. The Luna Watch concept has a smooth design and a stylish blue-and-white color scheme that makes it more of a functional fashion piece than a watch. The watch tells time using the three flowers on its face. Each flower has petals that light up to tell the time. The biggest flower tells the hour, the medium-sized flower tells the first part of the minute (from 10 and higher) and the smallest flower tells the second part of the minute (from zero to nine). The watch also has an option to display the time digitally should you get sick of telling time using flowers.
