july 17, 2008 the difference between a fad and a trend: a fad is a small-scale, short-term event, while a trend has duration and leaks to mainstream (kudos to the wikitionary). an obvious trend in baroque-style floral and chandelier patterns, damask, lace, scroll designs, and concepts alike appear more often than ever in fashion as well as interior design. the cameo emblem seems next in line – photo from martha stewart (the trendsetting genius) – and im sure we’ll be spotting it in mainstream soon enough.
