REFINED WEST

Western-inspired looks are gracing the runway again this season, but this time it’s about specific elements rather than a head-to-toe effect. Classic Western shirts are complemented by statement trousers like leather jodhpurs, high-waisted trousers or plaid pants, freshening up the trend. Simple yet strong details include bolo ties, embroidered yokes, fringe, and re-thought cowboy boots will give any ensemble a touch of the Western feeling.

JOY LUCK CLUB

Chinoiserie prints and exotic animal motifs make a powerful statement on the runway this fall. Silk dresses or leather jackets are the perfect foundation for dragon embroideries or appliqués. There is even a dragon-shaped handle for a stylized pair of lorgnette sunglasses. Cheongsam styling, cherry blossom prints, kimonos and silky lacquer red pajamas underline the eastern theme — just in time for Chinese New Year.
