SE ASO N AL D RO PS S/S 18
To help with S/S 18 planning, WGSNs four Vision trends are mapped across six
key retail drops. This will provide clear insight into which Vision trend will be most
relevant for which parts of the season, enabling effective planning for product
development across all seasonal ranges.
The WGSN seasonal recommendations are broken down into the following:
The season opens with Slow Futures, focusing on practical and functional product that
crosses over from winter into the Spring Transitional drop
Kinship has two drops: Spring which centres around lighter layers, and Mid-Spring &
Festival, which explores new festival essentials
Psychotropical also has two drops: Summer which targets both casual and resort, and
High-Summer, which focuses on beach looks, with an emphasis on print and pattern
Youth Tonic has an expressive urban attitude that works for the Summer Transitional drop,
as the season moves towards autumn
