We’ve made our own little fashion investigation and now give you the lowdown on the hottest trends of 2012. Hold on to your seats as we take you on this riveting fashion tour!

The Traditional Diva Look




Even international fashion designers have paid tribute to this look. Ken Downing, Fashion Director, Neiman Marcus, says, "Bold, bright, happy color will make a strong statement on the Spring runways and prints, prints and more prints — a madcap mix makes news!" Whatever it might be called, this look is just great for a host of different occasions, from formal office dos to fun casual events and activities. Team a plain solid color kurta top, preferably in black or white, with jegging or churidars in bright and effervescent  colors like maroon, blue, purple, green, etc.

The Dainty Damsel Look


This look is best suited for parties as well as quiet dinners with your near and dear ones. A simple sleeveless dress with pretty prints will do the trick. A neat clutch and pretty sandals will only add to the charm.

The Boho Chic Look


This look is not for the faint-hearted and will surely needs oodles of confidence in order to be executed successfully. Pair a sleeveless blouse or top with jeans or capris or even the desi patiala pants. Throw on a pair of gladiator sandals or closed sandals, gold accessories and some shimmery eye-shadow and lo and behold, you’ve turned into an absolute goddess!

The I’m-all-set-for-winter-wonderland Look


How can we not tell you about winter trends? Sport wrap-around sweaters or sweaters with shawl collars over full-sleeve vests and slim fit trousers. You are sure to scorch the winter fashion scene with this look! Sweater dresses are a fantastic choice too!

The Androgynous Yet Ultra Chic Look


This look works not only because of its sheer simplicity but also because of its subtle cool and . This fact is evident from Editor-in-Chief at Harper's Bazaar, Glenda Bailey’s statement- "Gold and Khaki! After last season's focus on silver, I think we will return to glamorous gold and see it paired with khaki. Also, think pink!" Couple a plain, solid light-color top, a leather jacket and tapering pants with lace boots. Great for an impromptu evening-out with friends and Friday dressing!
