Fall Trends - Classic Tailoring on Plaids and Houndstooth.

Posted by Jplantz | August 24, 2009 | tags:

Masculine ease meets feminine allure in elegant, ageless fashion. Tailoring is a timeless concept suitable for all women. The Edwardian dandy is alive and well – this time wearing a high-necked lavishly ruffled blouse paired with elonged pants and topped with a rakish fedora. The new twist in the girl-meets-boy look is the soft sculptural tailoring of jackets, skirts, hats, scarves, and bags. Shoulders are softly poofed, collars get rounded, waists are gathered, pinstripes get tucked, and houndstooths get heathered. Bow ties are showing on hats, waist bands, gloves and around the neck – both the classic bow tie and the true menswear neck tie shapes are making a comeback. This cross-generational androgyny befits a modern day Annie Hall. Suits abound in both slouchy and relaxed, or slim and sophisticated silhouettes. In salt and pepper wools, simple stripes or classic houndstooths, they’re just waiting to get feminine touches with scarves, bows, pearls, and pins! Accessories for this trend look particularly current when in the powdery hues of celadon, dusty blue, rose, and honey.
