A Red Affair

Red captures her essence. Throughout decades and diverse cultures, it has long been the ultimate expression of love, emotion and power. And now, her dream wardrobe has arrived in a spectrum of the hue’s most splendid shades, from bright to Bordeaux. The look is bold and authoritative – yet feminine – with an emphasis on high-tech materials, luminous embellishments, fur details, shine and luxurious fabrications. Leather rules – done in sheath dresses, soft pants, minimalist tops and pencil skirts, as well as revamped outerwear. Leather is also important – in graphic clutch silhouettes and utility backpacks – while ruby stones with brass hardware can be found on the season’s new suede single-sole bootie.

Urban Utility

For her, fashion marches to a military beat this Fall. Think rescaled, recolored and DIY camouflage. The cargo jacket, vest and pants join the ranks in different styles – from tailored to oversized – along with retro bomber jackets and traditional peacoats. Equipment shirts resurface. Utilitarian chic is redefined, especially whenthe unexpected elements come into play. Work in Army surplus boots, backpacks and utility belts.
