Goodbye, boho babes; bonjour, femmes fatales! We're loving the new strong shape in fall fashion. Tough luxe feels right for these interesting times.

Perfecto (above: Versace, Stella McCartney, Hermès)
• A key item leading this fall’s biker gang.
• Patent or distressed leather.
• Street style goes chic.
• Zippers, buckles and straps.
• Black rules, with others in midnight blue, grey and brown.
• Shrunken at Versace.
• Oversized and metallic at Stella McCartney.
