Etro Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear Collection
A new take on a classic preppy style is the feeling I get from the brand new Etro fall 2019 collection. This runway particularly stood out to me because of how different it was in tone. There is something distinctly academic looking to this collection. I simply love the use of velvet and different textures used in this runway. From bags and belts to the tights that the models wore, the accessories paired with all of these looks gave so much more dimension to the entire collection. There is also a very loose feeling to these fall looks. The colors scream changing leaves, but the fit of these designs are…

Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear Collection
With over one hundred ensembles shown in this Dolce & Gabbana runway, this collection was both vast and, at times, a bit eccentric. There was no clear influence upon this collection, from what I can tell. The only significant thread connecting each of these pieces is a sense of showmanship. Volume, volume, and more volume is the take away from Dolce & Gabbana. Don’t be surprised if in fall 2019 red carpets are dominated by voluminous dress.

Alberta Ferretti Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear Collection
Wow. All I can say is wow. This collection is a jaw dropping! If I had to wear one runway collection for the rest of my life, it would be this one. All of the boxes are checked in my book with these designs. The colors, the hint of western inspiration, and the overall sophistication. I like to think that this collection came out of the inspiration of a trailblazing woman who takes on the city like a rebel from the old west only a lot prettier. The fabric is what really makes this collection so cohesive. None of it is too over the top, even the shinny suit in…

Victoria Beckham Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear Collection
I’m going to be honest, Victoria Beckham runways are not typically one that I look forward to. I find her designs to be somewhat boring and unoriginal. This collection didn’t blow my socks off by any means, but Victoria Beckham did pleasantly surprise me with these designs. One of the reasons I am usually no enthusiastic about Victoria Beckham runways is because I just know what her color pallet will be. She never varies from only a limited number of shades and this collection was not an exception. That was a little disappointing to me. However, I could tell she tried to step-up her game in some interesting ways. The…
