Dressing in pretty posies from head to toe may seem like an overwhelming style statement at first, but designers neutralized the bold look with clever styling (like breaking it up with a wide belt), as seen at Derek Lam, Rag & Bone, and DKNY. The lesson? Even the boldest prints are wearable with the right additions.
The most eye-popping color used for fall: Wine red. And while the color can be seemingly tricky to wear, designers placed the rich hue on glossy outerwear for a “throw-it-on-and-go” approach. Tory Burch and DKNY belted their high-shine pieces, while Tommy Hilfger offered a preppier double-breasted option. Any way you wear it, the simplest outfit will come to life under bold statement coats like these.
With the Summer 2012 Olympics looming, designers shot straight for the gold. Marchesa, Ralph Lauren, and Prabal Gurung all showed evening looks in gold lame, so take this into consideration should you want to stand out at your next black-tie affair. Even better, the natural shine of this metallic adds an instant glow to every skin tone.
Feminine, flirty, and universally flattering, designers gave the full skirt silhouette an update for fall with color-block designs, stripes, and brocade. The various hues and patterns—as seen at Marc by Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, and Altuzarra—will be a must-have for your fall work wardrobe, and easy to wear with pieces you already have in your closet.
