Trend tracking

Cat Power

July 29, 2010  2:44 pm


Way back last October, a curious trend emerged from the Spring 2010 shows. Call it a case of cat-scratch fever—designers and hip girls were all feeling cats. Paris was just about meowing, with Miuccia Prada’s kitty-print collection for Miu Miu, which found (alongside daisies and reclining nudes) cartoon felines printed on collars, dresses, tops, and accessories. (At Azzaro, Vanessa Seward heard the mewling, too: She commissioned Kuntzel+Deygas, the graphic designers behind the sleek opening credits to Catch Me if You Can, to create drawings based on her own cat, Monsieur Jo.)

Ever since, the cats have been on parade, appearing in ads (costarring with Kristen McMenamy in the spooky, Steven Meisel-shot Lanvin Fall 2010 campaign, pictured), in editorials, on influencers, and even at a few high-profile weddings (Charlotte Olympia designer Charlotte Dellal put her adorable flower girls in kitty headpieces for her May stroll down the aisle).

Click here for a slideshow of our favorite cat-inspired pieces and feline-loving ladies of 2010. And by the way, as usual, the Chinese numerologists saw this one coming. It’s the year of the biggest cat of ‘em all—the tiger.
