Ahhh, Fall has arrived and it is time to update our closets. Slim and streamlined are in, while the tent look that so dominated our Spring and Summer is out. Silhouettes are the rage this season, with such items like A-Line skirts, tailored Jackets and a lean, mean well tailored suit becoming staples for every woman’s personal Fall collection.
Gray is the COLOR for Fall 2007, but it is met by metallics, deep browns, burnt orange, navy blue and the always in style, black. Knits are in again this Fall and Leather is back with a big bang. Leather is back with such a bang that you will see it in many colors, including sunshine yellow, but brown and black are sure to be outstanding in this season’s hottest pieces.
Wide-legs, menswear style, and high waisted pants are new for Fall. But ladies, don’t be so quick to pack up your cigarette cut, skinny jeans, as those continue to be definite must haves for every woman’s closet. And if you love the ultra-feminine retro look, then there is a great deal for you this season, as pencil skirts, bell-sleeves, cinched waists are all here to stay.
Belts continue to reign as the IT accessory, with belted dresses and coats still a popular trend this season. As for the finer details, pieces accentuated with sequins, bows, pleats and origami inspired folds are sure to be on many Fall must haves.
