Preparing to show for a third season at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, Spanish designer Toni Francesc's Spring 2011 collection is based on creating an Urban Forest.

The upcoming collection, “Urban Forest,” is an interpretation of a forest-based city environment. This concept leads us through an intelligent forest in which we feel closer and more in touch with our natural surroundings. Wood is the inspiration of this collection as well as the eco-friendly consumer and those that are committed to the environment.

"Urban Forest" is a collection that is just as versatile as wood itself. In this respect, depending on its treatment, wood can present its most natural dimension - as witnessed in tree bark - or its most elaborate side, including carved and moulded wooden forms. The Collection's clothing items present a series of rough and enveloping forms combined with other cleaner volumes and straight, milder lines.

The color palette is inspired by natural landscapes, using neutral shades such as beige, white and grey while incorporating tones that contrast with flashes of light in the shades of yellow, turquoise and coral. The fabrics boast their own organic language and are combined to bring texture to the designs. Garments are composed of linen, cotton and silk.

Are you excited to see a an interpretation of an "urban forest"? Do you think, that after all the 80's neons, spring 2011 will take a neutral turn?
