The world of fashion, especially women's fashions, is well-organized. Months before those dresses were in the stores, the fashion industry decided and announced that (for example) flowered fabrics would be big in spring 2012. Red would be a featured color.

Of course, it won't be that simple. there will be a number of looks, cuts, and colors to choose from. But clothing production will not be random, by any means.

Why? Well, for one thing, the people who sell shoes, underwear and barrettes want to make products that will look good with the garments. What a waste if stores were selling red and white dresses while shoes were turquoise and yellow.

What you're seeing is two women in up-to-date fashions for whatever season those pictures were taken.
