I would like to thank my friend Ben for passing this WWD excerpt along… I can’t believe I missed it! This is an actual quote from a WWD article:
“Vegas exhibitors are exploring many angles of the multifaceted nautical trend — everything from Americana preppy and Moroccan Bohemia to Mediterranean Old World Villager. Must-haves include earth-tone linen pants, fisherman sweaters in summer blends, ethnic-inspired printed and washed cotton shirts and anything striped for a globe-trotting lifestyle. Oh, and of course skulls.”
Oh yes people… it said “Mediterranean Old World Villager.” Does this mean next year’s trends may include the following:
- Lebanese Spice Market Hustler?
- Panamanian Canal Drifter?
- Sri Lankan Lamb Roaster?
- Peruvian Alpaca Herder?
Which trend do you foresee next season?

I vote for Panamanian Canal Drifter…I just bought 8 pairs of pants from a Lebanese Spice Market Hustlter for 10k, I’m putting them in my line next season.
