Fur Accessories
With the blur of AW 2016’s RTW fashion week a distant memory, we can now focus our heads towards Spring and Summer. As we navigate that transition, it is important that we keep our multi-seasonal style on track to sophistication and this year it is all about the accessory. It is the finishing touches that complete an outfit. We will break down the looks to make the minor details the most effective of your outfit.
The Original:
First of all, you can never ignore a jacket to make your look. It is a power player in everyone’s wardrobe and designers have certainly given us a number of options to choose from. An example of a mink bathrobe from Cavalli or Brock can be wrapped like a blouse, dress or even a topper over your shoulders. If you want be adventurous, simply add a jacket made from a skin. It’s lightweight, durable and coordinates from day to evening. You do not even have to look far for them as Cavalli again supplies a great quality. A jacket with fur sleeves was a popular occurrence on the catwalk for designers and is a twist on the ordinary. A dominant take away from the shows was the colourful fur sleeves and trims that were added to tweed and leather coats. Anyway you look at it, a jacket is a key piece that gives you maximum mileage for your investment.
With AW 16 RTW fashion week a distant memory, we look at the touch of fur in accessory trends to take you through to Spring and Summer.
Add a Stole:
Designers Lanvin, Sally La Pointe and Givenchy add fur stoles in Ready to Wear that inspires and makes a statement without saying a word. A simple, yet effective way to style it is for it be thrown over the shoulder. You can of course drape it around the back of your neck, put a belt at your waist and you’ve got a shawl collar.
The Tail End:
A plush fox tail makes a great addition to purses. Designers Versace and Lanvin put a tail on it! Pin these pieces and show your fun and whimsical side.
The AW RTW fashion shows gave us great styling options. The formula for fashion success begins and ends with a great fur accessory. Designers today give you the newest colour combinations, daring silhouttes and luxury beyond exception. Fur is a unique material that is in a class of its own. It defines the silhouettes with subtle halo effect and most of all it begs to be touched everywhere you go.
