It’s all about the details
A bare canvass may be beautiful, but it doesn’t make much of a statement without content or contour. The same principle holds true for clothing without matching accessories—they seem lifeless and replaceable. Highlights in the form of accessories are a must when it comes to standing out from the crowd. Accessories and trims can be the unique selling point that really take a piece to the next level, lending that trendy edge shoppers are looking for.
Union Knopf’s Womenswear Collection for Fall/Winter 2016/17 packs a punch with a broad range of products for highlighting and refining a collection’s profile.
Pure Sensitive
Normcore at its best! Simple cuts, comfortable layering, contrast silhouettes as well as high-‐quality winter fabrics and tone-‐on-‐tone material mixes define this low-‐key yet modern urban trend. In terms of color palette, these usually monochromatic, subtle, high-‐end looks often appear in warm non-‐colors complemented by gentle beige tones and pale nudes.
The matching details for these looks make for delicate accents that underscore their sensitive quality. Oversize buttons and closures in high-‐end materials such as leather blend seamlessly into the overall look. New closures for wool fabrics for coats, blazers and knitwear are the highlights of the collection. For example, chunky pastel buttons in Durohorn® Ziegenhorn look beautiful with knitwear

while a wide range of snap buttons in new, eye-‐catching shapes are on offer for giving down fabrics a lift.
Cross-‐purpose
What is beauty? It’s safe to say the answers to that question are controversial. Whether it be vintage allure v/s modern-‐contemporary or styling that showcases a mix of clashing materials, cuts and patterns, the concept of contradictions is key to a new trend that’s based above all on defying established fashion conventions. A color palette limited to subdued pastels acts as the thread that ties these disparate elements together.
This trend is focused on the wide range of pants and short, waisted blazers and coats currently on the racks. Distinct closures and refined buttons that underscore the contradictory nature of this trend without making an overly playful impression are an absolute must. Lend any piece an individual edge with the wide range of accessories in this season’s collection, from snap buttons featuring a new look and feel to eye-‐catching trims for pants and trousers.

Symbiotic Energy
Where elements from folk, Boho and Brit chic collide, it’s safe to say the look will be intense! Winter darks, especially shades of red, as well as bold patterns and fabrics with a traditional feel are key here. These elements—in doses—come together for a smart look for fall built around fur coats or vests, double-‐breasted trench coats, new cropped pants and flared cuts.
The buttons to match include the sleek, simple forms of Real Horn line or colorful models in beautiful Durohorn® Classic Brasil.

Green Area
Military influences have been relevant for several seasons, popping up over and over in range of looks and degrees of intensity. Decorative elements are thrown into the mix this season, adding rhythm to looks in greens and earth tones in the form of masculine and feminine utilitarian elements for a bold highlight in young urban wear.
The buttons, snap buttons and rivets on offer this season also clearly reflect this military influence. JP buttons with a used look are a great way to play up the military statement.
