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.
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.
Ulyana Sergeenko at Dior
Ulyana Sergeenko swept into the Dior show in a dramatic tiered and tasseled wool skirt and an oversized hat. Her personal style strikes me as very 21st-century Anna Karenina – elegant and aristocratic.
Ruby Aldridge, Outside Moschino
Model Ruby Aldridge combined retro high-waisted jeans with a vintage Leica camera outside the Moschino show.
Carlotta Oddi at Fendi
Such a cool look on Carlotta Oddi outside the Fendi show in Milan. The tee is Balenciaga. It’s hard to imagine what the fashion flock will do without Balenciaga’s former designer Nicholas Ghesquiere for even one season. So many fashion show attendees were wearing his designs this past fashion week.
Janice Alida, Outside Fendi
Janice Alida is one of several models this past season – including Jessica Stam – to dye her hair dark brown. The look is striking and sleek, especially with a burgundy patent leather skirt.
Kate Moss at Stella McCartney
Kate Moss, called “the Garbo of fashion” by the NYT this weekend, is coming out with a huge photo book spanning her career, Kate, with commentary by Moss herself. Here she is exiting the Stella McCartney show in Paris this fall, surrounded by a mob of paparazzi.
Linda Wells at Balenciaga
Allure editor in chief Linda Wells brings professional polish to every outfit she wears during fashion week, but I especially loved the mix she wore to the Balenciaga show: Coat with contrasting lapel, mixed prints and a great leather pencil skirt. It looks both pulled-together and très chic.
Carlotta Oddi at Cavalli
Another new girl on the scene who’s been attracting a lot of attention because of her good looks and great style is Carlotta Oddi, assistant to Anna Dello Russo. On the last day of Milan Fashion Week, she wore a cool and relaxed jeans outfit to the Cavalli show. The distressed, bleached jeans show how many varieties there are now in denim. Love a hat like this for a rainy day. The studded bag is Valentino.
Black and White, Outside Gucci
Here’s more of my favorite transitional look of black and white, outside the Gucci show at Milan Fashion Week. Love the leather-paneled skirt.
Frida Aasen Outside Milk Studios
Here’s another new model I love: Frida Aasen, who walked in several big shows this fashion week. Outside Milk Studios, she wore black leather shorts, a white top, and a favorite accessory of models this fall: limited-edition Beats by Dre headphones.
Claire Sulmers in 3.1 Phillip Lim
Blogger Claire Sulmers of the Fashion Bomb was one of the first people I’ve seen wearing this cool 3.1 Phillip Lim cartoon sweater outside the Creatures of the Wind show. Several other trendsetters have been spotted wearing it since.
David Thielebeule in Dior Homme
Allure Mag’s David Thielebeule is one of the most photogenic people I have ever shot. He always looks amazing! On Sunday, he wore Dior Homme the Diane von Furstenberg show. The leather shirt is a great example of how much more versatile leather has become now. Leather tops and pants have been a big trend outside the tents for men and women.
Leather Sleeve Coat, Outside Timo Weiland
Sunday’s Timo Weiland show drew a lot of snappy creative dressers like this man in a blue coat with leather sleeves carrying a wooden Chanel bag. Scarf print pants like these have been a big trend outside the tents. You don’t have to spend a fortune to get them either, since similar styles are available at J. Crew.
Geraldine Saglio at Rochas
Here’s another example of how to wear a black biker jacket in spring: pair it with white jeans and a bright sweater, as Geraldine Saglio of French Vogue did at Rochas. Classic and stylish.
