Fall/Winter Catwalk Trend 2017/2018: Grey Suits

When office attire becomes a full on fashion statement things really get interesting. So we’re quite excited grey suits are officially a fall/winter trend. They might even be the most reliable look of the season, creating tons of style opportunities (worn as a complete set or just the jacket or the skirt). A classic tweed (check as seen at Calvin Klein, Alexander Wang and Fendi) makes this trend even more outspoken. And pencil skirts work just as much as pleated pants do. Even boiler suits (Chloé), jackets worn as dresses and shorter school girl skirts are allowed when, as for the next few months, formal wear becomes fun.

Fall/Winter Catwalk Trend 2017/2018: Corduroy Cool

It might be one of the trickiest fabrics in fashion, but when you are able to pull of the corduroy look you’ll sure to make heads turn. The seventies style fabric made it’s way onto the runway at the shows of Etro, Christophe Lemaire, Marc Jacobs and Prada among others. Creating bold, colorful and show stopping looks every single time. And as the typical seventies palette of orange/red/brown hues usually works best, Nina Ricci proved a full on light blue colored corduroy ensemble can be just as impressive. From subtle (Etro) to statement (Marc Jacobs) just find out how much of this trend you want to indulge in (if a complete suit doesn’t suit you a corduroy bag or hat might) and be sure to look corduroy cool in the upcoming months.

Fall/Winter Catwalk Trend 2017/2018: Cinched

As much as we love ‘boxy’ and ‘puffy’ nothing says femininity more than an hourglass silhouette. And so waist belts are back big time, cinching just about everything, from sweaters and dresses to jackets and coats. Mulberry opted for a belt in matching checks, at Fendi belts were branded (with the brand’s signature FF logo), Isabel Marant presented a velvet option and Balmain made the biggest belt statement in brown colored croc leather. Long sit down dinners might become a problem, but you’ll look splendid nonetheless.
