ELLE Style
Ankle boots
Ankele boots are crucial to update your look, wheter they are cut above or below the ankle. The hot replacement for stilettos as the kinkiest footwear, wear them with seasons key pieces-skinny ciaggarette pants, a short, sharp dress and those ubiquitous leggings.
Brocade
With a nod to the historical trend that swept the a/w catwalks, opulent brocades have made a dramatic return to favour. Look to the exquisitely embellished mini dresses at Miu Miu, sweeping embroidered gowns at Cavali and elegant gilt-laden coats at Dries van Notes for inspiration. And to keep more modern than regal, mix your luxury with, say a shot A-line skirt, white tee or platforms.
Quilting
With both volume and streetwise trends on the rise, outerwaer is fattening up and padding out. Blown-up puffa jackets cruised the catwalks at V&R quilted trench coats made an impact at Burberry Prosum, and pouffy parkas had curved collars that stood out-quite literally-at Hussein Chalayan. So how not to look oversized as your coat? Balance out the volume with a pair of skinny jeans, sleek boots or elegant courts.
