For inspiration for their fall 2008 collections, it seems like our favorite designers whipped out their old
Nirvana and
Pearl Jam records and got back into the Seattle spirit because plaid was the standout trend on every runway from New York to London to Milan to Paris and LA. Fashion heavy-hitters like
Ralph Lauren, Marc Jacobs, Dolce & Gabbana , Vivienne Westwood, Whitley Cross, Chanel and loads of others experimented with the timeless pattern, updating it by playing with colors, textures, cuts, and a variety of accessories. Celebrities are always way ahead of the rest of us when it comes to spreading the trend love, so of course, plaid is making its way onto the taut bodies of some of our favorite style-setting celebs which inevitably means in a few months time, plaid will be at the top of everyone€™s €˜I need this RIGHT NOW€™ list. So get a head start on the plaid action by checking out our slideshow for some super cute ways to go mad for plaid (sorry, I really just had to throw that in somewhere!!).
