Caught in fall’s winds of restraint, designers returned to their heritage and tweaked their greatest hits—camel coats at Hermes, skinny pants at Stella McCartney and Sartorialita tailoring at Dolce & Gabbana— for a season of smart, classic clothes.
The coat
Thankfully, there’s a chic way to stay warm this winter. Coats with clean lines in wool, cashmere, leather and fur were interpreted in everything from peacoat and chesterfield to parka, cocoon and frock.

Lace
Goth glam arouses an erotic frisson in black lace as summer’s hit boudoir-dressing trend continues to cast its spell of feminine mystique.

The silhouette
Not body-baring or showy, the neo-lady mood references a traditional buttoned-up and proper side in retro silhouettes, cinched waists and long, lean, mid-calf-grazing hems.
