The Ars Sutoria Trends Guide is specically developed for designers and merchandisers who have
to create collections in the eld of shoes & bags.
The typical workow of a company has to deal not only with creativity and trends but also with
marketing, merchandising and technical development. Thanks to the connection between the
publishing house and the Ars Sutoria School we are in the conditions to offer a unique tool.
This publication is issued twice a year: in January and June.
CONTENT OF THE BOOK
Four major trends on worldwide lifestyle, deeply analyzed offering unique insights and ideas. Each
trends is divided in three sections:
CONCEPT: This rst section presents and introduces the inspirational and creative trend themes.
It explains the main basic concepts of the theme and then species the key colours and the
proportions in which they will be used. Images introduce the atmosphere of the trend, together
with materials and a selection of iconic shoes and bags.
CONSUMER PROFILE: This section is intended to focus the market positioning of the collection.
Each trend is more related to a specic consumer prole. We identify the target consumer of each
trend looking at: where he lives, what he likes to do during his free time, which are the opinion
leaders he follows, what retails concepts he likes more, which goods he desires to buy, websites
he surfs, music he listen to. At the end of the section you can nd a list of brands that can be
analyzed as competitors or reference brands.
COLLECTION PLANNING: The rst question to be answered at this point always considering that
the collection will be created inside a company concerns the investments in the development of
new structures/materials. This means understanding, for each of the four trends, whether to focus
more on investing in structures (designs of new soles and heels with consequent mould opening,
etc.) or to focus more on purchasing new materials for dressing up the existing products in order
to enliven the collection.
MERCHANDISING THE TREND: to better illustrate the key structures or materials, we have
selected a range of sample shoes and bags, highlighting the most commercially viable
brands.
Photos can be easily found on arstrends.com website, a footwear and leathergoods overview.
SKETCHING THE TREND: the work ends with a real stylistic proposal, a sample collection of
designs with structured themes and balanced offering of the most conceptual and rened
ideas, as well as simpler and more commercial products.
MATERIALS FOR THE TREND: close to the sketches, we have provided material references
from Italian suppliers. A nal section recaps materials and components that best match
each trend.

Concept
Picking out and superimposing a mix of cultures.
Aesthetic styles typical of the last century, between rustic and
Japanese pop. Unconventional enough to become an icon of
contemporary trash. A new Urban Folk, full of popular and
artistic references that dictated the styles of the XX Century. From retro
design to pop art. The new artistic currents turn to contemporary pop,
graphic and colourful, natural and organic.
Colours
Colour palettes that underline a surreal taste to combine
unusual tones. Orange and green. Chocolate and neon yellow.
Turquoise and shocking pink. Lime and lipstick red. Black and black.
Military green and burgundy.
Materials
Rich materials, rustic materials. Gold fabrics,
geometrical printed designs, tapestry in natural bres. Nylon, rubber,
polyurethane, high-frequency nishes. Painted studs, tarnished
metals. Chains of polished wood, gunmetal rings. Dyed furs in
shades of colour. Patchwork for new generation matelass kilting.
Flock effect on experimental materials. Wool, complex jacquard,
treated leathers. Appliqu and embroidery.

leader is Alexander Wang, followed by Thakoon Panichgul,
Prabal Gurung, Phillip Lim and Derek Lam. This style falls into the
market segment called contemporary. Its functional, smart,

have grown up in the US dictate fresh rules in American and European
dress. They design pragmatic products of excellent quality/price ratio,
starting from models proven on the market which they elaborate with
innovative details.
Colours
Salable and primary tones. Matt black, shiny burgundy,
mirrored petrol blue, bitter chocolate, steel blue, dry sand beige, mink
brown, orange tan. Full and bold colours.
Materials
Synthetics, innovative, high performance,
futuristic, substantial. Thick but lightweight.
Bonded and double-face. Punching together with nylon and nappa.
Brushed leather and crisp nylon. Skins and synthetics characterized
by nishes of perfect precision.

Trend positioning according to the outsole
Metropolitan theme, young and very cool
The functionality of the metropolitan use mainly comes from strong and sturdy
rubber soles, for both men and women. It is a theme dominated by hybrid
products. An extremely androgynous theme, which can also be seen in the
womens dressy shoes with voluminous and important shapes,
sturdy and comfortable heels and solid soles.
For women, ergonomic rubber soles combined with leather
uppers for a minimal look and geometric cuts. The sports world
includes minimal and designer sneakers dominated by black and white, as
well as multi-coloured graphics reinterpreted with technical
materials and optical effects.

ADIDAS SLVR PIRELLI PZERO
Trend positioning according to material
Unisex and metropolitan use for the world of bags:
On the one hand, strong leather with geometric constructions
and one-colour approach, unisex, formal but cool.
On the other hand, use of more casual/innovative materials and more
economical materials with a daring touch of contrasting colours.
Rigid structures and geometric cuts featuring large volumes that
have been made minimal by a clean and simple approach and by the one-colour
approach in the world of leather/fake leather.
The BACKPACK plays a fundamental role in both one-colour leather and
innovative materials with a hi-tech look.

Concept
The new rock is subversive because it combines wild and
rebellious grunge with the minimalism of
English classics.
A style direction taken by the new generation of designers led by Hedi
Slimane, Raf Simons, Givenchy, Balmain. Starting from typical icons of the
English rock world, strict and minimal, the new rock becomes
elegant and classical, austere and severe.
Colours
Tar black is rock. Leather brown is grunge, blood-
red English, psychedelic blue is rock. Tones darken in
all the colour palettes, taking on mirror, reective, polished, velvety,
shaded effects.
Materials
The rock+grunge+minimal+English classic ingredients are expressed
in a mixture of leather treatments: destroyed +
brushed + patent, craquelet + lled + pony, shaved + waxed -
laser processes. Perforated effects on thin rigid hide. Fluid nappa.
Crocodile of raised scales. Rock version sh skin. Brushed, varnished
and reective in tones and the consistency of tar. Worn and torn
effects. Crusts moulded with dry wax and powdery shades.
Rock the grunge

Concept
A gourmet, as we know, is a person of cultivated tastes who
demands the enjoyment of good food and drink. The gourmet of fashion,
like that of food, is a connoisseur, a person who has the foundation of
classical style, then carried through to Italian country and English heritage.
As for food, the passion for accessories is dened by a search for
tastes and avours that are intense, sharp, full
bodied. A lifestyle that combines a passion for the authentic, genuine,
typical of a place or a style.
Colours
The chromatic effects form a range of browns, fresh and
new. These can verge on red, burnt orange, indigo blue, military
green, woodland earth and bark of scented trees. The shades can vary
according to dyes and treatments of full bodied leathers.
Materials
Real leather, authentic and genuine, on which to try out
experimental treatments and invent new nishes, chromatic
effects and grains. Craftsmanship and industry meet in the
natural world to experiment with shaving, abrasion, creams and waxes
of new generation but of organic origin. Brushed, crackled, distressed.
Shaved and polished pony. Precious reptiles. Anaconda and alligator
treated with softening oils and waxes. Thick and luminous velvets. Wool,
cashmere and Shetland materials. Colour-dipped crust.

Timeless Design
Innovative Restyling of an old taste
CORNELIANI CHLOE
Trend positioning according to the outsole
Timeless design means timeless classics with a modern twist for men and women, for a
contemporary look. Bespoke look and extreme attention to detail in accordance with the
best handcrafted tradition.
For women: sinuous and retro shapes made with quality leather, lots of warm colours
and the use of leather as the dominating material and colour. We are talking about dressy
shoes with light platforms and square comfortable heels for everyday use. The latest
trends emerging from the catwalks: uppers completely or partially made of fur or pony.
For men: timeless classic models restyled with the use of coloured rubber soles and
handcrafted colour treatments.
SNEAKERS: for men and women, which never touch the world of super sports; in particular,
we are talking about a casual and more lifestyle sneaker, which sees the predominant
use of tapered shapes and the nest Italian materials.

Ars Sutoria - Background
The Ars Sutoria magazine was founded in 1947 specically for footwear manufacturers.
Since its origin, the magazine has been produced inside the publishing ofces of the
International Technical Institute for the Footwear Industry to underline the fact that this
publishing experience is rooted in the desire to offer footwear professional contents that
are both creative and highly technical, i.e. never disconnected from the reality of the Italian
manufacturing industry. The rst issues of the magazine, which are still available for viewing
at the Milan headquarters, presented footwear ideas, concepts and designs. Our aim is to
recapture this proactive spirit.
Over the years, the Ars Sutoria magazine has become the reference point for learning about
footwear collections, materials and components. The possibility to travel around the world and
the availability of digital information in real time has allowed us to be a strategic observatory
of the most important events and trends in the international fashion world. The rational
observation of these trends allows us to offer expert opinions on what was successful in
international markets during current and past seasons, but also to formulate proposals and
incentives to help operators work on their upcoming collections.
