Trendhunter reports on festive Paco Peregrin designs that bring the past into the future: "Paco Peregrin for White Sposa has definitely done it again. Teaming up with his faithful stylist Kattaca as well as makeup artist Lewis Amarante, there is nothing he cannot do." Other styles mentioned on the Trendhunter site quickly veer into a mishmash of Elizabethan, baroque and revolutionary historical retro references with a dose of the 1980s and futuristic spacewear for good measure. In addition to historical fashion retreads, the trends rely heavily on Darwinian evolutionary themes, with designs, make-up and accessories echoing fish scales, butterflies and other insects. From 'Victorian Surrealism,' to 'Avant Garde Warrior Wear' by designer Manuel Albarran, to military chic - this is the future.

For men, there are choices between Drab Recession Chic, Lord of the Rings-inspired fashions, post-Apocalyptic styles, and Modern Medieval Menswear, as well as clothing with other historical references. There's also a huge military dress fad.

Caption for the image above: These designs were shown on the Parisian runways on January 18th during Paris Fashion Week. In a stark contrast to the couture part of the fall 2008 collection from John Galliano, these outfits are astonishingly lord-like. The collection included Elizabethan-inspired outfits with Shakespearean bowl-cut hairstyles to match.

Caption for the above image: What makes this collection so unique is that each piece is made from machine-crafted billet blocks of Military Spec G5 aerospace grade titanium. However, don’t be fooled by its “tough-guy” appearance, because this rugged RogueDZN collection also features softer, more feminine pieces for women, making it appealing to all.
