New Teen Fashion

Teen Fashion Trends for Spring

he New Year is here and with it, the "new look" in teen fashion. This spring and summer's fashion trends are big, bold, loud and proud. The styles are a bit of a throwback to the 1980's, leaving behind everything bad and bringing back only the good. From bold, beautiful plaids in purples and browns, to spangle dangles jewelry, to chunky footwear, teen fashions for spring 2009 have a lot to say.




Colors- The colors for spring 2009 teen fashions are vibrant on the one hand, and classic on the other. Turquoise is the latest shade of blue to hit the runways, showing up in everything from prom gowns to tankinis, hats to scarves. Bright fuchsia is the year's hottest pink. Combine turquoise and fuchsia and you've got an eye-popping, traffic stopping outfit that could come straight off the runway. On the more laid back fashion scene, navy is turquoise's hot blue cousin. Whether a jacket or a swim cover, if it's navy blue it's going to be in demand. Brown is another of the spring's main colors. From handbags to formals, brown continues to be the "new" black for fashion. Coming in the middle of the two color extremes is purple. From deep, royal purples fit for princesses the world over, to more subtle shades of violet, purple stands in the gap, offering you choices that could be either vibrant and bright or laid back or classic.

Teen's glad : Nikeisha Richardson

TEEN Nikeisha Richardson was the talent the judges were looking for.

The Year 12 All Saints Anglican School student competed against 69 other teenage models at the $100,000 Opal Fashion Bash '08 in Townsville earlier this month.

The 16-year-old caught the eye of the judges, both with her beauty and her clothing designs.

Nikeisha was recognised as the most outstanding model, teenage model of the year and placed third in the best dressed surf-swimwear category.

As well as her successes on the catwalk, Nikeisha took out third place in the best tropical resort wear for her designs.

"I think it was good experience to get my name out there in the modelling industry," she said.

"It was also lots of fun going up there with the girls from school, our teacher and my mum."

When her name was called, Nikeisha said she wasn't paying attention because she had no expectations about the event.

"All of a sudden everyone was looking at me and I couldn't work out why," she said.

For her efforts Nikeisha won a seven-night holiday, a five-day Tamblyn Models course, an opal necklace and bracelet, a $300 cheque and a modelling contract.

The talented teen encouraged others to enter in similar contests to boost their confidence.

"You have no idea what the judges are looking for and so you just have to do it your way and hope they pick you," she said.

"I entered one of my designs in another competition and I spent so much time on it and didn't win.

"I was discouraged but decided to give the Fashion Bash a go and I ended up doing well so I learned not to give up."

Several other All Saints students flew home from the competition with prizes, including Angela Walsh and Anna McMillan, who came first and second respectively in the best hand-drawing section.

Their teacher, Kill Shehab, was not to be outdone by the students, winning the voters' prize for the most outstanding computer-generated drawing.

Nick Jonas and Miley Cyrus Date

Miley Cyrus (16) and former boyfriend Nick Jonas (16) went on a lunch date on Saturday in Los Angeles. Nick was so nervous that he got into a car accident. Miley is bad luck for Nick. It’s never a good idea to go on a date with your stalker.

Miley looks so excited (below) that she’s on a date with Nick she can barely contain herself. Miley seems to have forgotten that Justin Gaston is supposed to be her boyfriend. Maybe those multiple gay rumors are true after all.

Miley said the other day she checks her boyfriend’s phone to see who they’ve been calling a send tex messages to. It seems Miley’s boyfriends should be more worried about Miley cheating.

Radiohead tell Miley Cyrus to grow up

Radiohead have responded to Miley Cyrus after she claimed they snubbed her at the Grammys।

The Hannah Montana star, 16, wanted to meet the band at the annual music event last month.

‘My manager asked and said, you know, “Miley, she's really obsessed and she'd really like to meet them,” and they were like, “Yeah, we don't really do that,”’ Miley said in a radio interview.

‘I left because I was so upset. I wasn't going to watch! I'd already texted all my friends, we were all freaking out. Stinkin' Radiohead! I'm going to ruin them. I'm going to tell everyone.’

Responding to the threat, Radiohead told Us Weekly: ‘When Miley grows up, she’ll learn not to have such a sense of entitlement.'

Teen turns trash to fashion in 'trashion' show

Wylie High School sophomore Ashley Brown, 16, stole the show at the Abilene Public Library "Trashion Show" Saturday.

OK, she was the only contestant. But that did not dampen the enthusiasm of those who came to watch her walk down the runway modeling not one but three outfits made of duct tape, plastic or recycled material.

Not many girls could create a change of clothing fit for a day at the office, a picnic in the park, or a social event on 5th Avenue with just a little plastic, scissors and tape. Even Cindy Crawford might have envied Ashley's ingenuity, creativity and thrift in assembling a wardrobe that probably cost her less than $10.

Meredith Adams, library assistant and a graduate of Hardin-Simmons University, did not let the lack of contestants dampen her spirit for the event. Adams organized the event after learning of similar fashion shows in Australia, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

Although Adams could not enter the "trashion show," she came dressed for the occasion by wearing a dress of an old window curtain and a blouse put together with duct tape and plastic.

"This was our first event," she said enthusiastically, "but we will have them again."

Adams organized the event to bring more teens to the library, and she said she believes this is a good start.

Reanay Brown, Ashley's mother, sat beaming as Ashley modeled for the audience.

When Ashley walked in front of the audience, it didn't seem to bother her that the bags had small Target logos all over them along with ideas for reusing the bags. The list included trashcan liner, doggy duty, toiletry tote, kitty litter liner, and water balloon -- nothing about wearing them.

Ray and Peggy Gooch came to the show to watch Ashley. They cheered after she showed each outfit.

Teen Fashion excites young people

Brazil Fashion Week – Teen Fashion, organized and directed by SK Eventos, was held last September 9-10 at Terraço Daslu, in São Paulo.

The event is destined for the young public and it brought the 2008/2009 spring-summer collections from important brands in the segment to the catwalks. The event received institutional support from ABIT and Sinditêxtil-SP.

Fashion shows by Mattel, Spezzato Teen, Pucca (Warner Bros.) and Lilica & Tigor highlighted the arrival of the collections to store windows around the country.

More than 5000 people including press and guests visited the event over the two days. Besides introducing the collections of the aforementioned brands, it also counted on the AMEM fashion show, an institution that supports children and adolescents.

It took a fashion show with 11 looks to the catwalk made by children who participated in the fashion workshop run by Nídia Duek. Besides creating the models, the children, aged 9 to 14, also wore them in the fashion show.

Nearly 500 toys were collected for the Happiness Project, an institution that supports needy children with cancer and carries out actions to re-establish self-esteem through fun and joy, encouraging the children in their fight against the disease.
