Shala Monroque at Haider Ackermann
Another one for the archives for some FW fashion week inspiration: Shala Monroque at last winter’s Haider Ackermann show. Again another great combination of a formal coat, in this case camel, with a knit cap and the dog sweater peeking out subversively from beneath.
Fur Coat and Black Knit Cap, Fifth Avenue
A cool hi-lo combination. Not sure if the fur is real or faux, but the look is a nice mix of uptown and downtown aesthetics.
Lynn Yaeger at Ralph Lauren
Someone we all look forward to seeing at NY Fashion Week: the inimitable Lynn Yaeger. She is quite the fashion maximalist and detailed her packing strategies for the European fashion weeks in this funny Travel & Leisure essay.
Elena Perminova at Derek Lam
Tigers have become a key fashion trend since Kenzo made a tiger the center of their sold-out fall 2012 sweatshirts. Elena Perminova was ahead of the curve at last winter’s Derek Lam show, decked out in tiger prints and a cool urban aprés-ski look.
Jourdan Dunn, After Moschino
Such a chic look on model Jourdan Dunn after the Moschino show in Milan. Colorful denim is a key way to warm up winter staples like a black coat, and the wide brimmed hat is just great personal style.
Beanie Hat and Plaid Coat, Madison Avenue
Beanie hats with pom poms are the chapeau of choice this New York winter. On Madison Avenue, a woman paired hers with a belted plaid coat and high heel boots for the right mix of playful and professional.
Plaid Coat, Madison Avenue
Thankfully, this year in NYC we’ve seen a move away from ubiquitous black puffer coats and towards more interesting colors and patterns, especially plaid. It isn’t just for fall anymore – it’s appearing throughout the winter. The bag is Balenciaga.
Fur Coat and Hermes Bag at Carolina Herrera
Don’t let the winter doldrums get you down: cold weather can also provide an excuse for a major fashion statement, as with this hooded fur jacket with leather sleeves on a guest at Carolina Herrera’s show. The bag is Hermès.
Nina Garcia at Victoria Beckham
Nina Garcia mastered the warm but sexy look on a very cold day at the Victoria Beckham show, where she sported an all-black outfit of skater skirt, tights and stiletto boots, belted sweater, plus a warm shearling jacket.
Anya Ziourova at Derek Lam
One way to ward off the blues on a really cold day: a colorful fur coat, as seen on Anya Ziourova outside the Derek Lam show.
Plaid Coat at Derek Lam
Back into the cold: a belted plaid coat and oversize scarf are a stylish way to battle the elements.
Candice Lake at Derek Lam
Photographer Candice Lake lightened up a winter look with a shearling coat in pale green and cream. The bright floppy hat is the perfect topper.
Black and Yellow, Outside Victoria Beckham
Nothing brightens up a sea of blah black coats in January like a pop of neon color. This guest at the Victoria Beckham show accented her thick black coat with a sunny yellow hoodie and mirrored sunglasses, bringing a little Cali surf style to bear on a NY winter day.
Black Leather Coat at Victoria Beckham
On another brutally cold day last February, this guest at the Victoria Beckham show brought out the big guns: a black leather shearling coat, incredibly warm no matter what the weather.
Ada Kokosar at Gucci
Stylist Ada Kokosar wore a pale peach No. 9 dress and black (faux?) fur jacket and matching hat to the Gucci show. The look is romantic and moody, though the sleek cut of the dress keeps it modern.
