Want to get ahead like the stars? Here are a few tips for finding out what’s going to be a big fashion hit before it happens!

It takes a lot of work for a girl to stay on top of her game when it comes to fashion. There is always a new style, trend, or even color that is hotter and another cut that people are demanding. How can you find out what is in style and remain on the cutting edge instead of always following others who are setting the trend? A few of the ways include attending runway shows, reading fashion magazines and paying attention to what the stars are doing.

Attend the Seasonal Fashion Show

This might be an expensive way to find out what manufacturers will be producing soon, but if you really want to stay on top, this is the way to go. Runway shows are held in Milan, Paris and New York every six months and feature the hottest designers and what they are making for the upcoming season. The shows are six months ahead of time, meaning they have the spring and summer fashions featured in October and vice versa. The shows are held during Fashion Week and are usually scheduled consecutively so trendsetters can choose to attend the event in each of the major fashion cities around the globe. Celebrities, athletes and lots of stars attend these shows just because it is fashionable to be recognized at these events, even if you don’t wear the clothes.

Pick up Fashion Magazines

There are plenty of magazines devoted to just style that are printed in countries all over the globe. Browsing through these pages on a regular basis will show what the trend is for colors, patterns, fabrics and even looks. These magazines will give a great indication on the style of gowns for rent that are available so that you can look like a trendsetter without paying the new style prices.

Visit the Stores

Going out in person and seeing what the stores are carrying is also a great way to stay on top of the current trends. Pay attention to the styles and price of the dresses and pieces you would like to purchase. Then find the same dresses and pieces for less by renting for a much smaller fraction of the price. The mall stores will carry trendier clothing, but the larger upscale department stores and boutiques will have more original pieces that run with a higher price tag.

Watch What the Stars Wear

One of the biggest indicators of what will be or is already popular is by watching what Hollywood starlets are doing. This doesn’t mean you have to turn to a gossip site, but pay attention to the stars and what they wear on the red carpet events, out to non-profit outings and for fundraisers. What stars wear is usually cutting edge and will become popular for others. Their outfits are usually copied and made available to rent for a lower price as soon as a designer can copy them.
