New, new, new. That was the message behind what retailers were looking for at New York Fashion Week and New York market. The fashion cycle thrives on newness, and that's exactly what designers delivered-new trends to excite any fashionista looking to revamp her closet for the next season. Overall themes ranged from feminine frivolity to modern utilitarian looks, classic Americana and global-chic sophistication.

The jumpsuit was a breakout trend, and rompers and shorts continued as popular items. Denim freshened up with lighter colors, boyfriend fits, vintage washes and distressed effects. Super-sized silhouettes with a heavy '80s influence-the power suit, blazers, paper-bag waists and pleated crop pants-continued to be key. And vintage dressing is back, thanks to Marc Jacobs. Jackets paired with skinny little pencil skirts and full '50s varieties are all important for the season. The palette was fresh in icy pastels and bright neon colors that add a jolt to everything from skirts and jackets to bold-statement accessories.  Blazers to harem pants, sheer fabrics and the new shoe-boot, are new looks for Spring 09.
