Ethnic Influences

Most ethnic inspired clothing has become so common that they really aren't considered ethnic anymore.

Mexican or Spanish inspired clothing (colors and prints) are really apparent in the summer time. (http://www.dillards.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=301&langId=-1&storeId=301&productId=501593040&N=1000930&searchUrl=%2Fendeca%2FEndecaStartServlet%3FN%3D1000930&R=02819392)

Asian styles and prints are always changing. It used to be that the "silk" dress with the same pattern was all there was, but this print seems to be everywhere and on all types of clothing from hoodies to hats and everything else.

Indian inspired long dresses, prints and colors seemed to be everywhere this summer. These change slightly every year, but there is usually something in the market along the same lines.

And especially this time of year plaids inspired by the British Isles is a staple in department stores and magazine.
