Prestige issue 280, November 2016
Overview of Seasonal Trends
Officer
The military uniform continues to inspire creators. Dolce & Gabbana and John Galliano tackle big uniforms …
Fall colors
Far from black and white, the color palette of this winter is wide and varied: lilac, yellow mustard, red amaranth, green khaki …
Neo Corset
The corset makes its comeback far from lingerie. It is worn as a belt at Prada. In leather, at McQueen and Loewe, it becomes armor.
Biker Girl
The winter biker version 2017 wears her oversized jacket with delicately embroidered sleeves (Elie Saab) or associated with her leather pants.
Prima Ballerina
Valentino, Galliano, Acne or Molly Goddard were inspired by the tutu and other stage costumes of the star dancers. Star piece: the ballerinas diverted in ankle boots of Valentino.
Fur
The fur (the real as the false) is always the heroine of the winter wardrobe. This year, it is tinted with pastel colors.
Leather always
The leather becomes second skin and is worn in total look, quilted at Chanel or cowgirl edgy at Chloé.
Denimania
The embroidered oversized jeans jackets are unanimous on the catwalk, from Miu Miu to Chanel and Stella McCartney. Denim mania also affects bags and other accessories.
Velvet touch
The flagship of the season, the velvet blackout was imposed on all the parades.
Ruffles
Seen at Chloé, Balmain, Rochas, Dior and Valentino, the ruffles add a romantic feminine touch to the season.
Shoulders
The shoulders are denuded and play the card of sensuality.
Feathers
No question of taking out this «trick» in feathers from the closet … Airy, the feathers come to embellish the sleeves and the dresses.
Leopard Pop
Unmatchable, the leopard print dismisses its classic palette and is adorned with colorful spots for a more pop effect.
Knitwear
Woollens and knitwear are worn in oversize sweatshirts, high-necked sweatshirts, pants or skirts. Prefer the total look for a cocooning effect.
Gold
Gold again and again … But in more measured tones with bronze reflections.
