Asymmetrical Hems
An uneven hemline is a surefire way to punctuate an outfit while leading the eyes to every detail of the look. We saw the technique utilized in various fabrics from denim to tulle.
Pattern and Print Play
A prevalent pattern play was seen throughout the shows as the designers showcased digital prints, knits, and kitschy tapestries.
Power Suits
Powerful lines meet masterful tailoring as suit dressing takes the spotlight, and this time they come in braver designs and bolder silhouettes.
Textures
From plumage to lace, fringe to fur, the designers appealed to both senses of sight and touch.
