Με τις πλούσιες και πολυτελείς υφές, το σκληρό biker στιλ, το σπορ streetwear το, το αυστηρό menswear, τους όγκους, τις απλικέ λεπτομέρειες και το σέξι βινύλ -η μόδα αφηγείται μια ιστορία πολλαπλών επιρροών για το Φθινόπωρο / Χειμώνα 2016-2017, σε μια γιορτή του προσωπικού στιλ.

In the fall/ winter 2016-2017 runways we saw that the the 1970s still held some place on the catwalk, it was not nearly as strong as it was for the spring and summer fashions, while vastly diminished if compared to last year’s top designs.

The top fashion trends of fall/ winter 2016-2017 ready-to-wear collections include:


#1 Lots and Lots of Layers

We always manage to look good for the fall and winter, but lately there was a problem with keeping warm. Since we want to wear transparent looks, it only makes sense to wear something underneath as well. Then again, we were thinking of something similar in cut to skirts and dresses and not wearing pants and tops and a few other pieces underneath the main piece.
Lace dress over a bandeau top and masculine pants, a lace turtleneck appearing under the velvet brocade at the chest.


#2 ‘80s Glamour

Whether we are thinking rock and roll, leather, fishnets, or the gritty graffiti of the times, it is clear that we have transitioned away from the 1970s and come well into the ‘80s here as we enjoy some of the loveliest retro looks seen yet. It is all about the loud trends for fall 2016 here, with contrasting prints and lots of stellar content. 
The combination of white tiger print crop sweater with bright turtlenecks and graffiti miniskirts is intriguing enough without adding fishnets, socks and leopard print shoes.


#3 Plenty of Pleating

One of the top fall 2016 trends and spanning further back than that is the look of pleats. While there were more during the spring and summer seasonal presentations, we saw a good amount appear on the fall and winter runways as well, seeing a good pattern there.


#4 Lots of Velvet

It was so very beautiful to see so much velvet on the runways, with so many intriguing designs on it, from prints to embroideries to the simple cuts of it all. It is an expressive texture, soft to the touch and gorgeous to view, with a slight shimmer to it and the ability to keep you much warmer against the elements. Social events are made all the richer with velvet creations showing of your body. 
The use of fall 2016 colors on the velvet is even better, while pairing that with pantsuits makes for a 1980s comeback while still showing off a modern tinge, as is seen with Phillip Lim’s designs. Crazy fuchsia designs at Prabal Gurung also give us some sporty pieces that look well when matched with same color and texture boots.


#5 Simply Suede

The suede is very much a trend left from 2015, where the 1970s was the era of choice and the designs were retro and blasts from the pasts. We loved the material use then and we love it now, though we are happy that it has given way to velvet and allowed velour to rule as well. 
One of the most practical and wearable fall/ winter 2016-2017 fashion trends, suede has that special shine to it that only suede can have, the softness of the pieces all the more reason to invest in this winter-perfect material. 
At Tory Burch, we see suede in denim blue colors, falling to mid-calf at midi heights and showing off a demure sense of calm that rather inspires faith in the lady’s intelligence as well. Ralph Lauren’s suede pantsuits in the totally masculine effects are beyond darling and definitely covetable


#6 Loads of Leather

We have always loved the leather jackets, the leather tops and skirts and everything in between. How can one get enough of leather anyway? It is very much a part of our fall needs and so when The Row gives us super long leather coats in brown or we see cropped leather tops under velvet suits at Phillip Lim.
Leather was found on trousers, skirts, dresses and more, even on hoodies for a cleaner effect. Leather was spotted in synthetic, shinier forms on Mulberry, with high necks, ruffled front, long sleeves, and above the knee hems.


#6: Use of Metallic Shine 

The metallic looks were all the rage on the catwalks as we noticed skirts, dresses, tops, pants and everything in between appearing in silver, gold, copper and more. It was a look we easily fell in love with, the variety of shiny metallic details all the more attractive when appearing as art on transparent gowns such as that seen on the Alexander McQueen runway, or as rather lovely prints on knee-length coats appearing at Peter Pilotto. Decorative tinsel made many of the pieces seen on the runways look especially shiny with their metallic sheen, from golden coats at Dolce & Gabbana to silver skirts at Fendi, Adam Selman and Marco de Vincenzo giving us even more in that style.


#7: Perfectly Plunging Necklines 

The 2015 top trends of plunging necklines continue into 2016, right into the fall and winter fashions and we think they might keep on popping up for a few seasons yet since it has not fully caught on with the public. 
However, when you have plunging necklines paired with shirts or high-necked tops underneath with long sleeves and body contouring materials, it makes it all the more appealing since there is less skin exposed to the elements. In this case, Prabal Gurung is a great example with its dresses over Chinese collar shirts.


#8: Focusing on Asymmetrical Shoulders 

We have seen everything from single shoulder dresses to open shoulder sweaters, the former appearing lovingly on Herve Leger, while the latter spotted at Rag & Bone. The focus on the shoulders has really sparked a love for playing with the décolletage as well, but that falls under a category of its own. 
Lowering the top to show off a little shoulder or playing with single shoulder designs gives the looks a flirtier, more feminine edge, made to counteract the often-masculine accents to the outfits on the catwalks. Double straps over a single shoulder appeared at David Koma as well, and that look really brought sexy back, especially since it only added to the outline of the décolletage.


#9: Showing off the Shoulders 

During the spring and summer collection presentations, the top trend was the open shoulders indeed. Now, it appears that we have moved into the fall and still manage to find a good amount of fully bare shoulders, presenting define décolletage. At Opening Ceremony, we can certainly enjoy the look with outfits that include comfortable sweaters tucked into high-waist pants falling to the ankles and looking pretty stylish if you ask us. 
Open shoulders are seen with strapless pieces as well, really bringing the focus up to the indentations and strength of the neck, Victoria Beckham playing up on the creations.


#10: Cut-Outs Showing Skin 

There is a mini trend happening for fall that includes slits in the dresses and tops, becoming the next big thing and perhaps meant to be focused upon more come spring 2017. We notice that a few designers have played with this concept here for fall 2016, including Victoria Beckham who literally made a strapless dress out of wraparound tartan, the abdomen slashed into and left with some interesting slots placed there. 
There is an emphasis on mummy slits at Proenza Schouler, the banded bandage top skimming the body beautifully and turning into a high-neck, long-sleeve tunic instead.
