Catwalk Trends F/W 07.08

[Spike413]

I've noticed an art deco vibe running through some collections, Poiret has been mentioned in a few Style.com reviews and I definitly see it in subtle doses. Even Marc Jacobs squeezed in some vaguely deco details in his jewelry and cloche hats.

i was just about to say the same

i love this season

very strong 20s,30s and a bit of 40s references , I guess designers got fed up of the 60s/80s influence which has dominated for many seasons

Elbow length patent gloves (I noticed them alot in the last fall collections, but they seem to really have taken off this season. I particually liked the harsh leather with the softer looser tops at Narciso Rodriquez)

Narciso Rodriquez

Marc Jacobs

Badgley Mischka

Zac Posen

I do really like it with the bare arms as seen as Narciso though.

I doubt the collections we have seen are going to be relevant.

I have to agree. Prada, Balenciaga, YSL. etc. seem to set the trends. At least the ones Anna Wintour publishes and that seems to trickle down, but that is a whole other debate...

 

[sarah13]

But I love all the trends people on this thread have pointed out so far.

H&M has got a 'Beauty and the Geek' collection

 

[stilettogirl84]

THe main thing I'm notciing is how body concious everything is- the volume seems to be going away, and being replaced by flattering clothes that really make the werer look good, rather than like a fashion victim.

I'm liking this runway season better than many in the past few years

5 x 10New York's Fashion Week may be a foggy memory of feathers, hats, and sequins, but we're still sifting through the looks. We combed hundreds of shows to find fall 2007's ten biggest trends, from silhouettes to shoes. Now you just have to find somewhere to wear them.

• By Harriet Mays Powell & Amy Larocca

Calvin Klein,Ralph Lauren,Marc Jacobs,Donna Karan,Narciso Rodriguez

(1.) Your silhouette will slim down.
Fall's shapes are far narrower than spring's bubbles and trapezes. Marc Jacobs and Calvin Klein led the slim charge, with belted coats and tailored dresses respectively.

Oscar de la Renta,Thakoon,Zac Posen,Ralph Lauren,Anna Sui

(2.) You'll channel the queen.
Tweed can be hard to pull off—it tends toward bulky, frumpy, and way too royal family. Thakoon handled it lightly on an elegant coat, while Ralph Lauren and Oscar de le Renta made it classic, not dowdy.

Calvin Klein,DVF,Anne Klein,Bruce

(3.) You'll supersize your sweaters.
Chunky knits were all over the runways. Bruce showed how cozy can still look sleek, while Diane von Furstenberg kept it loose and comfortable with a floppy-collared sweater coat. Our pick, however, is Malo's sweater: space age and warm at the same time.

Calvin Klein,Michael Kors,Narciso Rodriguez,Proenza Schouler,Zero Maria Cornejo

(4.) You'll get some new pants—finally!
After a year of dresses and leggings, pants are back, and in a big, big, big way. There were great slouchy menswear versions at Michael Kors and Proenza Schouler, slick stovepipes at Narciso Rodriguez, and sailor-esque pants at Zero Maria Cornejo.

Behnaz Sarafpour,Derek Lam,Y-3,Zero Maria Cornejo,Thakoon

(5.) You'll zip it good.
What is it with the eighties? This season it was zippers. Behnaz Sarafpour trimmed hers in neon yellow, while Derek Lam kept his basic black. At Thakoon, the zippers were for pockets only.

Marc Jacobs,Donna Karan,Proenza Schouler,Vera Wang,Michael Kors

(6.) You'll keep your head warm.
Whether it's wide-brimmed (Marc Jacobs), pulled low (Proenza Schouler), or little more than a spray (Donna Karan), you'll be wearing a hat. Cover for warmth (Michael Kors's fur) or for modesty (Vera Wang's head scarf), but just cover with something.

Derek Lam,Donna Karan,Marc Jacobs,Narciso Rodriguez,Thakoon

(7.) You'll dare to clash.
In what has become a 5 x 10 classic, navy and black reigned supreme: a black belt on a navy dress at Derek Lam, royal blue on cardigans at Marc Jacobs and Thakoon.

Narciso Rodriguez,Derek Lam,Michael Kors,Ralph Lauren,Donna Karan

(8.) You'll keep walking tall.
The platform trend remains, but it's subtler. The shapes are more traditional this season: pumps, sandals, and so on. Everyone from Donna Karan to Derek Lam amped up their shoes, with platforms beneath the toe box that function like lifts.

Marc Jacobs,Luca Luca,Tory Burch,Vera Wang,Oscar de la Renta

(9.) You'll be dazzling.
Sequins and paillettes were everywhere, and in a whole host of vibrant colors. They were silver and muted at Vera Wang, and Technicolor dreamy at Marc Jacobs. Tory Burch even showed how the look can work for day: beneath a toggled fisherman sweater paired with an easy pair of pants.

Isaac Mizrahi,Malandrino,Marchesa,Sari Gueron,Thakoon

(10.) You'll fly away.
What's more fun on an evening gown than a mound of fluffy feathers? Not much, as dresses from Mizrahi, Malandrino, and Marchesa pointed out. Sari Gueron and Thakoon turned their cool, young eyes on the trend with pared-down takes.
