Bouncing Bunnies

Is it me or is there a huge trend in Bunnies at the moment. Paul Smith is famous for his use of bunnies throughout the visual merchandising of his stores. Being shown around his showroom in Soho New York I learnt that Paul Smith himself sees bunnies to be a sign of good luck and makes sure they are prominent throughout his stores.

Bow like bunny like sticking up ears have cropp

ed up all over the fashion industry with Louis Vuitton starring them on his Fall 09 runway

shows in Black and Pink. They add a sense of fun and playfulness to classic pieces which designers have focused on during the recession.

Vogue Russia, Mary Kate and Ashley Olson and Madonna are all sporting this trend.....

Now they have hit out high streets with Topshop, H&M and Forever 21 selling them.
