Browsing through the fashion websites, magazines and stores, the Fall Trends to me seem to comprise of the following: Rich textured fabrics of paisley, brocade, jacquard and tweed; scarf-tie at the neck blouses (haven't worn one of those in forever!) and lots of black, especially sheer lace - Valentino Couture in particular feels Noir Victorian/Game of Thrones inspired.
For me, there were two exceptional collections for this Fall/Winter - one being Tomas Maier of Bottega Veneta. There were no jackets or pants, just fabulous dresses, skirts, sweaters and coats. On the face of it the clothes looked very simple, but it was all in the details of exceptional cut, fit and fabric. The length was below the knee and hems gave a lovely swish when moving, without an excess of volume. The graphic patterns and color combinations kept the looks fresh, yet very elegant. Take a look...
Fall’s here and everything I’m reading and seeing on the street and in stores points to grey – shoes, bags, clothes. I’m thrilled as grey is my color of choice every winter. Every winter I have one statement sweater and this winter is no exception.
