The ready-to-wear runways of the
Fall/Winter 2017 collections have started! We might be so ready to wear warm-weather
fabulous fashion; but we know that the panache, elegance and glam of our colder
day’s wardrobe are things we cannot resist falling for. So, let’s New York be our
first source of inspiration for the future cool days to come. Mmmmm….
Here some beautiful trends seen
there…
THE HIGH-WAISTED PANTS
Charged with cool retro vibes, and
a dose of wonderful masculinity; the high-waisted pants; belted or not; showed
how our legs could be easily elongated. In all colors and for every taste; they
became a key piece not to ignore. (Narciso Rodriguez, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Mara Hoffman)
THE URBAN GORGEOUS HUNTER
Full of character, power and spectacular
style; urban hunters were all around the runways; with their gorgeous
voluminous ensembles, fur-trimmed pieces, huge warm coats, strong details;
everything in perfect earthy colors. Fabulous! (Monse, Vivienne Hu, Georgine)
3D EXTRAVAGANCE
Very artsy 3D details or
head-to-toe pieces with fantastic 3D textures, mostly on knits; stated the timeless need for
some great extravagance when the cooler months arrive. Let us keep that ‘3D
charm’ always in mind! (Zadig & Voltaire, Prabal Gurung, Thom Browne)
A classy hue that never stops feeling new, elegant and modern is the camel color; and it was very present in most of the collections; on head-to-toe looks of gorgeous suits, voluminous coats, covetable jackets, knits; skirts and pants of all lengths and fit. (Michael Kors, Moncler, Zero + Maria Cornejo)
ENCHANTING FAIRIES
Beautiful and delicate dresses with
romantic details and volumes, in subtle light hues inviting the ladies in the public
to join in an enchanting fairy story; had their very special moment. (Dennis Basso, Jenny Packham, Marchesa)
BOWS
There were charming bows tied to
the neck, or strategically placed to make a statement. They recalled old times
when extravagance was a must in royal courts. And, why not revive some of that
charm now and forever?! (Carolina Herrera, Altuzarra, Marchesa)
VELVET
Velvet dresses, suits and pieces complementing
sexy ensemble; in classic black, bright or paste colors became an important
part of many collections. No doubt this fabulous, shining fabric will be one
not to be left out of our fall/winter repertoire. (Anna Sui, Badgley Mischka, Gabriela Hearst)
SHAPLESS DRESS
Comfortable, easy fitting dresses or tops and skirts,
though not men’s favorite; they looked very fashionable and added the amount of
irreverence we are always ready for when it comes to our great style. A risk
worth taking from time to time! (Nicholas K, Sies Marjan, Ralph Lauren)
THE MAD-MAN LADY
A little retro, elegant, sensual curve-hugging
dresses with very feminine cuts, details, lovely deep plunging necklines and
tamed lengths were among the favorite pieces shown in these runways. This Mad-Men fever stays!
SHORTER HEMS FOR WINTER
Shorter hems were used even in the
most elegant suits and ensembles; adding a perfect dose of risk-taking and
modernity to serious and sophisticated looks. Why not? (Oscar de la Renta, Zimmermann, Narcizo Rodriguez)
THE SIMPLE GOLD DRESS
Very simple but charming and sexy
gold dresses became quite popular pieces in these collections. They are so
worth trying over and over again; as they looked fantastic on the catwalks, and
certainly would look fantastic on you no matter your personal style. Believe
me, you will find the right one for you! (Badgley Mischka, Michael Kors, Ralph Lauren)
