The Next Trend day is curated with an exciting mix of trend forecasters and speakers who give their different points of view on the future in macro trends, range plans, colours, concepts, key items, and why.

SCOUT: Head of Creative / Art Director Clinton Gorst and Creative Director Celestino Garcia
Title: REFLECTION
” Reflection isn’t just about looking back; it's about journey into our current reality and a vision for what’s to come. There will be inspiring films for each of the macro concepts, plus a focus on overall Colour and the Main Message of the season.”
Market focus: Style is never out of fashion. Colour Concept books related to each business area—LIFE+STYLE HOME, CASUAL+YOUTH, WOMEN, MEN—forecasting. Well-curated forecast books, online reports, and image folders have made SCOUT a much-appreciated service for the Scandinavian market for many years.
TRENDHUB: Emily McCarthy
Trendhub covers early trend reports from general MACRO consumer behaviour trends to Fashion (Women, Men, Kids, Youth, Active) and Home and Beauty. Commercial and easily interpreted to actionable colours, styles and direction.
D.CHIPHER FM: Christine Foden
Title: LESS PANIC, MORE COURAGE
'"A mindset where we can find each other, have fun and feel good. There is a general sense of disempowerment in the face of global challenges. We need to confront the world that sometimes feels heavier than we would like. We continue to look for meaningful moments, such as humour, fantasy, leisure, and unseriousness. On the contrary, the rise of the intellectual-er influencer (with a satirical, ironic vibe) is arguably a breather from chaotic visual media and overconsumption." A speech digging into consumer behaviour shifts and what it means to colour & style ss2026 and beyond.
Market focus: ACTIVE COLOUR & LIFESTYLE | WOMENS COLOUR & LIFESTYLE | MENS COLOUR & LIFESTYLE. Christine Foden is known for her colour excellence in design concepts that tap into shifting lifestyles. These lifestyles affect the visualization of how style and appearance become stories that give design a new boost. Colours and colour combinations in proportions are the strong arguments why clients in all kinds of design industries love D.cipherfm forecasting and presentations!
FS: Rachael Gentner, Director of Active and Joanne Thomas, Director of Color
Market focus: CULTURE | COLOR | FASHION MARKETS ACTIVE - WOMEN - MEN - YOUTH - KIDS - ACCESSORIES - LINGERIE.SWIM | BEAUTY | HOME.
