You know the drill: with the bi-annual Haute Couture Week over and leaving us wanting more, we have no choice but to reflect on the season’s trends while we wait another arduous six months for its next iteration. From Chanel to Giorgio Armani Prive, we round up the top three Fall 2016 trends that caught our eyes in the midst of all the glitz and glamour.
Slashed Necklines
How low can you go? It was all about maximum impact across the board, with V-necks dipping all the way to the waist at Elie Saab, and Armani Prive opting for a more modest take with covered legs and necks. Nevertheless, it was all attention seeking and bold; wallflowers need not apply.
Feathers
Haute couture is not an industry to shy from flights of fancy – literally. Feathers abounded in Valentino’s sumptuous maxi skirt, while Chanel sported pink plumage from the shoulders and cape. It was a very feminine and dramatic affair, but if haute couture isn’t all about grandeur and glamour, then what is?
Coat Dresses
Forget statement coats, meet statement dresses. An amalgamation of military influences and billowing skirts, Ralph & Russo tapped on the trend with a bright yellow contribution. Alexandre Vauthier, on the other hand, manipulated silky trenches with structured shoulders and pleats, spinning the typically feminine creations into rebellious gowns of military flavor.
