The
tendencies for the upper wear for Autumn-Winter 2011 repeat tendencies of the
previous season with the maximum practical capacity, while the models stay
attractive. Nevertheless, fashion designers presented some new trends at the international
fashion weeks and the sheepskin is used as the key trimming element which is
quite unusual, plenty of elegant models from leather and feminine silhouettes
to catch eyes.
Coats 2011
– the style that is in
The key
feature of trendy coats autumn-winter season is the simplicity and femininity
of the silhouette. Coats of the plainest and classic style dominated at catwalks
as well as models that were extremely womanly with the band accentuating the waistline
and quite a wide bottom. The real standard of femininity is the upper wear by the
latest Louis Vuitton collection where the fashion designer Marc Jacobs oriented
the preferences of the ordinary mature woman when creating his collection. It resulted
in the exclusively elegant coats by Louis Vuitton for autumn wear with the
minimum details and trimming, and the beauty was the tailoring. The models
resembling coats accentuating waistline are offered in the latest collections
by Hermes, Miu Miu and Stella McCartney.
The other remarkable
tendency in the upper wear for the coming autumn-winter season 2010-11 is the
length of coats to the knee line as long coats to the floor and short model
outdated replaced by the elegant classic coats. Autumn and winter coats to the
knee line are presented by such fashion brands as Cerruti, Hermes, Stella
McCartney, Vanessa Bruno, Celine and Givenchy. Though the coat style varies when
the collection by Cerruti offered incredibly feminine coats and the Celine coats
looked like they were borrowed from the man’s wardrobe completely.
Sheepskin
and leather
Leather as the basic material and sheepskin as the trimming element
prevail in plenty of newcollections autumn-winter 2010-2011. The ideal
design for coats of the new season seemthe leather models with the
collar and cuffs from the sheepskin. At least, such models were taken
as the basic models
for the autumn collection by the British fashion trend Burberry which
is deemed
as the standard for the exclusively elegant use of sheepskin. The
success of Burberry
in using sheepskin for their collections was shared with other brands
as
Hermes, Pamella Roland, Etro, Ralph Rucci, Margaret Howell, MaxMara and
Phillip
Lim. The liking for the stylish match of leather and sheepskin with
many
fashion designers seems to resemble the previous year collection by
Jean-Paul
Gautier for Hermes, Autumn-Winter 2009-10. The collection was built on
the aviator
style inspired from the image of the legendary woman pilot Amelia
Earhart. However, the collections of the coming season offer the
aviator
style garments with the visual changes towards femininity and
subtleness.
Trendy colors
Traditionally the color gamut for the autumn-winter season is not that
varied as the spring-summer collection with a mosaic of colors and here
the fashion designers put high attemptsto avoid using only autumn
shades like grey, black and brown. One of the demanded colorsin upper
wear is the deep and rich blue. Coats of the light blue, grayish blue
or the luxury
dark-blue tingle are offered at shows of Burberry, Brioni, Mulberry,
Fendi, Martin
Grant, Krizia, Peter Som and Max Mara.
Red color
is another, also highly appreciated this season. Various shades of this classic
color, from brick-red to juicy berry red are used for fashionable coats
designed by such reputed brands and designers as Altuzarra, Cerruti, Les
Copains, Oscar de la Renta,
Prada, DKNY, Carolina
Herrera and Sonya Rykiel. The red color is likely to stay the most
popular color for upper wear than the classic black for the autumn wardrobe.
