David Lim, designer and founder of Kasil, shares his insight on denim trends for spring and summer 07 and how to complete the look…
 
Everything from clean, classic jeans to printed cotton shorts will be available in a variety of washes and fabrications for Spring Summer 2007. We’ll see a lot of light natural colors, and definitely the layered look. Denim shorts are back, but in a new style and fit that is a bit shorter and more hipslung like a boy fit.  Also non-denim shorts will be a great look the season in graphic prints; especially stripes. 
The style for jeans is going back towards a clean look with some subtle details in rich deep indigo denims, leaving all attention on the perfect fit. 

Kasils next big concentration will be on our wide leg denim trousers, focusing our main styles on a classic tailored fit with higher rises.  We are also taking our inspiration for details from the masters of illusion.  That entails constructive details to enhance the look of the wearer beyond his/her human limitations.  So while the look of the skinny jean may stick around, it will be about opening up that trend to fit more body types.  (as you mentioned, the Jodphurs, and carrot pants).

Here are Lim’s choices for denim trends this spring, and some tips to finish the look:

Spring Denim Styles:
-     Soft, lightweight denim with subtle details and light distressing.
-     Trouser Styles with higher rises and button detailing.
-     Pleated and fitted denim shorts, cuffed or straight,
      in varying lengths.
-     Flattering fit details with innovative yet subtle seaming and construction.
    
To complete the look:
-     Nothing too fitted up top, keep the look loose and casual to compliment the denim.
-     Pair this seasons long and short shorts with flat sandals or high wedges.
-     Light layers with tees, hoodies, jackets, and scarves.
-     Oversized totes and bags for both functionality and style.
-     Add color and texture this season with graphic printed accessories and somewhat chunky jewelry with a vintage look.

Stay tuned—it is going to be a magical season! ! Lindsay Lohan has been spotted picking up a pair of Kasil jeans from shopkitson.com or shop Kasil Denim Deals Here
