It's that time of year again! Here I take a look back at some of the trends of the fall 2013 collections.
Proenza Schouler, Alexander Wang, Chanel, Balenciaga, Celine
There was a huge focus on minimal colours this season. Black, white and grey were all over the runways. Having a wardrobe full of these colours would make for easy outfit-planning. Also in the monochrome trend were other neutral colours like navy and cream.
Bottega Veneta, Valentino, Rochas, Dolce & Gabbana, Christian Dior
Fall took Dior's New Look of the 1950's and gave it a modern twist. Luxurious fabrics formed A-line dresses and skirts. Trés chic.
Prada, Marni, Fendi, Marc Jacobs, Hermès
Whether in the form of a chubby jacket, cuffs or a stole, fur featured in many of the collections. Most of the fur came in shades of brown, but the birds-of-paradise at Fendi were decked out in a rainbow of colours. Regardless of colour, a fur coat is definitely an investment for fall dressing.
Jil Sander, Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton, Max Mara, Christopher Kane
Coats came in a variety of shapes, colours and textures for fall. The oversized silhouette, however, was a stand-out. A great way to add a masculine aspect to any outfit.
I was just wanting to know if I'm the only one who didn't love the Prada SS10 show? Everybody seems to like the embellished shoes but I really dislike them. They sort of remind me of plastic kiddie shoes with the Velcro and cheap looking jewels. Sometime Miuccia can come up with amazing shoes but other times she leaves me thinking 'What?'
