This is fun! Will post a more detailed response later, but I immediately guessed (I think ) the answer to #5! I was a huge Dynasty fan as a child.

I’m hoping it’s red. I’ve been wanting more in my wardrobe.
Mostly guessing the same as others.
Non neutral animal prints-mustard, blue, etc.

One quick guess for no. 9 -fluorescent gloss?

Saw lots of neons and glossy materials on the runways...

I hope LaP is correct on number 3 because florals and botanicals appeal to me more than animal prints.

I’m crossing my fingers that Scotland means fair isle knits but suspect that tartans is the right guess...

If 3 is animal prints, I will look to you Angie for guidance on the least hard-edge ones!

If 5 is the 80s and 90s, I’m excited for the 80s half of that duo. Bring on the shoulder pads, I say.

Fun. Bring on the earth tones and the high rises.

I hope it is animal prints and snake but I think it is florals or botanicals.

UmmLila, you did very well too.

Good job, ladies. Informative, and all in good fun. Had a good chuckle too.

Ah, futuristic! Makes sense, apparently the runways are featuring materials (photo below from an Elle article I read this morning).

Sterling -- it is probably animal prints; I'm not much of an animal print person, so they aren't really on my radar. But I'm finally warming up to some of the dark moody florals that seem to be everywhere (especially bags and bomber jackets) Also, I feel like both florals and animal prints have been trending hard for several seasons now? Honestly, there's so much variety out there it's hard to tell anymore what's a trend and what's here to stay.
