Press Release Summary: New Equators End, Surreal Life and Unplugged collections on
site now

Press Release Body: London: Fashion e-tailer, asos.com showcases 3 womenswear
fashion-led trends for July and August, all mixing distinct silhouettes with vibrant
colour and striking prints.

"Equators End" unveils '70s safari glamour, taking inspiration from Northern Africa
and Savannah wildlife to create a sultry summer look with an exaggerated colour
palette and unique print motifs. The look is a real retro take on tribal decoration
with embellishment reining strong.

"Surreal Life" is the main going-out story for high summer evenings. Details are
extravagant, colours vivid, and pattern is inspired by oversized illustrations.
Ruffle duchess satin prom dresses make for a statement look and are perfect, teamed
with tailored blazer with jewelled brooch.

Taking influences from the late 1960s, the final trend, "Unplugged", is inspired by
a revival of folk music and hippie utopia. Fabrics are tactile with handcrafted
elements coming to the fore in floral folk vintage scarves and oversized crochet
berets.

Matt Setchell, Creative Director of asos who directed the July/August campaign shoot
commented, "The inspiration behind the July/August trend campaign plays with the
overall theme of colour and light, fusing rich kaleidoscopic projections with a
simple set of coloured blocks and cubes to give a more graphic edge."

The new season trends launched on asos.com on Friday 4th July.
