SWEATERS
❤️ Click here: Sexy date sweaters fall 2017
The extra-long arms on the sweaters create a cozy effect bonus. The Spaniard's couture-like collections feel like nothing else in New York or, for that matter Europe, toeing the line between homage to past design masters and future footing. Gorgeous floral dresses had leather jackets thrown on at Calvin Klein, high slits appeared at Prabal Gurung, hems were asymmetrical at Jason Wu, and there was a rather warmth in neutral tones appearing at Michael Kors. There is power dressing and then there is power dressing; this time we are clearly looking at the latter.
It's sale season, baby, and while it might be over 70 degrees outside, we've found pieces from Calvin Klein, A. It is a fun look, that is for sure. It may not be as common as the warmer alternatives, but it is still a season favorite it appears, with stylized baring of the décolletage, often with single sleeves or playing with invisible straps.
Sweater Dress - Either way, there was something about that pastel tone...
In a season where the biggest trend has been designers showing their love for New York City, Marc Jacobs's runway was the caramel coating on the juicy big apple. Through exaggerated Kangol-style hats, Seventies-worthy platform boots, big gold pendants and a synthesis of street style spanning from the Sugarhill Gang to OutKast, his collection was a reminder that revolutions begin in the street. It is an acknowledgment and gesture of my respect for the polish and consideration applied to fashion from a generation that will forever be the foundation of youth culture street style. There were the standards of American style: jackets, sweaters and denim in long, fluid Seventies silhouettes—the kind seen just around the time hip-hop took root, co-opted these styles and created a whole new subculture. Here, argyle sweaters, menswear checked pants, giant fur coats and frilly lingerie walked with swagger and exaggerated excess. The styling was over-the-top, with Jacobs mentioning Andre 3000 at one point. But broken down, the clothes were everyday: v-neck sweaters in blue, maroon, camel; zipped knit toppers; cashmere pants left a little loose tailor at will , and a lineup of great leather bags. Even the tracksuit, à la Run DMC at its prime. Jacobs always puts extra effort into outerwear, and there were a ton of options here. Shearling-collared coats hit the right note of nostalgia while Fair Isle-meets-bomber looks offered something new. The designer did not back away from fur, either, showing half fur-half tweed toppers and giant fur chubbies that were, to use '80s hip-hop vernacular, tight. This season saw Jacobs philosophical, political and tired of jumping through hoops. Like other designers before him, he just wanted to design clothes he loved and present them without frenzy. He politely asked that his audience refrained from taking pictures Busted, anyone who posted pics from the show. You know who you are. How's that for a fashion 180? When Ralph decides to give a woman flowers, he doesn't half-ass it. It's not in his vocabulary. For his presentation, he transformed the uptown Madison Avenue Ralph Lauren flagship into a garden of greenery and orchids, a graceful stage from which he launched a collection available right afterward of neutral-toned ready-to-wear that for Lauren-ites work in Manhattan, Easthampton and Kenya. Sporty separates like gently tailored blazers and button-downs mixed with day dresses cut either crisp and architectural or silky and fluid and crochet dresses. Lauren varied his silhouettes to give his clients variety but kept the earthy palette consistent, adding in leopard totes and satchels, snake platform sandals and bold, tribal metal necklaces to anchor it all. Like he did last season, Derek Lam presented in a manner so civilized, editors and retailers were lulled into forgetting it was the tail end of Fashion Week. They sat on modern white leather couches some not even having to share while models walked through, and Lam himself leaned up against a nearby wall. Just clothes, up close and personal. Much the way the women who would ultimately be buying them in the store would see them. Up close is better—to parse that a red floral brocade suit would be that daring purchase of the season, possibly worth it if you are bold enough to go for head-to-toe. But also to discover that a purple leather skirt can be a workhorse of a daytime wardrobe, specially cut in a clean '70s silhouette the way Lam did it. Lam seemed to have a freedom to try things out, and they turned out nicely, whether a smart navy coat with placement embellishment or a plush belted look with vaguely bohemian floral motif. On a runway, these choices may not have made as much sense as they would in the intimate setting that resembled a seasonal closet. So, Lam for the win. The fall runway collection at Marchesa is always met with a certain amount of anticipation and speculation. Which of Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig's confections will get chosen by stylists to be worn to the biggest red carpet prize of them all: the Oscars? Match the actress to the dress: It's a fun game to play, as the dresses walk by in a range of otherworldly delights, and party season is still a few weeks away and it's still too cold to think about going bare-legged. Ruth Negga would look divine in the sheer pale purple strapless dress covered in tufts of feathers and beaded flowers and cinched with a giant satin bow. Or perhaps the ombre lace gown that followed. Either way, there was something about that pastel tone... We'll give pregnant Natalie Portman a bye this season, though her chameleon sartorial style would allow her to slip into most of these except perhaps the voluminous looks. Isabelle Huppert and Emma Stone, two reddish brunettes, could pull off the darker romantic tones that were sent out. But Stone, in her 20s, might favor the more lavish ballgown types while Huppert, in her 60s might not need the drama of a gown. Perhaps the black columns with gold or silver florals for her. And it would be nice to see Nicole Kidman, with that height and hair, wear the gunmetal sequined dress with the plunging neckline. The sheer dresses with fur and feathers feel like the right speed for the gamine actresses like Michelle Williams and Naomi Harris. Harris could probably pull off just about any of these dresses, if we're being honest. Beaded olive, dripping in delicate beaded embroidery, would be just the thing for Octavia Spencer. Which brings us to the grande dames Viola Davis and Meryl Streep. Here, it's more about the confidence of the woman and less about the dress. While Viola we can dream about Davis in one of those pale gowns with deep red floral embroidery, she could also pull off the understated strapless green silk. Though she does like a bit of a plunging neckline... Josep Font explored emotion through the ages at Delpozo's fall show. Also nature, color, movement, volume, ornamentation and sculpture. The Spaniard's couture-like collections feel like nothing else in New York or, for that matter Europe, toeing the line between homage to past design masters and future footing. It's a fair sign that Delpozo is looking to broaden its clientele, too. The Crayola-bright blouses — both mannishly button-down and poetically scrunched — and striped knits with hoods added punch and the full, fluid proportions of trousers, both cropped and long, made for an elegant statement. But Font likes pattern and color, and fish and bird motifs were subtly worked in via oversized sequins placed strategically on oversized circle bags, knits and skirts, as if to mimic the feathers or scales of those delicate animals. The patterns in the intarsia sweaters had the effect of viewing something underwater at a high speed.
HUGE TRY-ON HAUL

Ryan Roche has some between spectacular creamy designs, while Tory Burch plays with cropped trousers in white adorned with golden initials. In fact, I love layering even in summers, too.
