EMBRACE A SENSATIONAL SUMMER WITH ROCKET DOG

Published: 22 May, 2011

The Rocket Dog footwear collection for Spring/Summer 2012 is a fantastic mix of colours, textures, prints and beautiful finishing touches. Ranging from beach flats through sporty pumps to glamorous heels, the collection encapsulates the Californian roots of the brand and delivers fantastic footwear for the discerning footwear buyer.

Bursting with colour, the Modern Rhythm trend for SS12 combines geometric prints with colour blocking for eye-catching results. Additional animal and tribal prints add depth to the variety of patterns available across the collection and the spectrum of styles incorporate cut out detailing, metallics and animal textures. The trend is energised and vibrant and is perfectly matched to the new silhouettes for the summer season created by the LA based design team.

Pure and simple is also a theme for the SS12 collection, mixing floral prints alongside textiles including crochet, macramé and lace. A natural vibe is embraced by the designers for summer and layering and woven textures appear frequently in a colour palette inspired by canvas, hemp, cotton and raffia. The trend is delicate and fresh with a simple tone – ideal for summer.

The Rocket Dog SS12 collection will be at:

'FITTING' NEWS' - Summer 2012 - Another Warm Welcome from the President – Jan Parry
In my last column I was hoping for a hot – or even warm summer – not much luck so far I am sad to say, and as the last edition was just prior to MODA, I was also hoping to meet more of our members – fortunately I had better luck on that score! Thank you so much for coming up to say ‘hello’ to my husband Francis and I, it was lovely to meet you and chat about trade. We have since had our AGM and I embark on my second year in office – where does the time go? The Minutes of the meeting are available from our Secretary, so if you want to know how the SSF has performed over the past year, do request a copy. My address at the meeting was as follows:
