Oversize is Hot for the Fall/ Winter 2012/ 2013 season

We often hear that clothes should fit perfectly. This is considered as one of the most important fashion rules. However, Fall/ Winter 2012/ 2013 season offers us to forget about any rules and start experimenting in a BIG way. And when I say BIG I really mean it. Big and Oversize are going to be cool this season! Everything from cocoon coats to billowing trousers will be filling your wardrobe soon and all you will need is a couple of advice on how to make those look stylish.

What oversize items to wear
Coats – Coats come big this season, big and beautiful. Jil Sander coats are feminine and delicate. Mary Katrantzou and Francesco Scognamiglio coats are adorned with mesmerizing prints. Gucci and Moschino coats feature military elements.

Jackets, Sweaters, Cardigans and Tops – The variety is even larger here. Puffy rounded sleeves, asymmetrical hemlines, huge eccentric collars – are just a few elements you will have to choose from if you decide to buy an oversized top, jacket or a cardigan. Designers, who have presented their versions of these trendy items are Balenciaga, Chloe, Ports 1961 and others.

Alexander McQueen’s Pre-Fall 2012 Shoe collection

When I think about Alexander McQueen’s shoes the first image that comes to my mind is the pair of weird, wild-printed, future-inspired super-high heels that was featured in one of Lady Gaga’s music videos. However, I do know that the brand has a lot more to offer, including stylish pumps and even flat shoes and comfy loafers. And Pre-Fall 2012 collection is not an exception.

20120910-103410.jpg
The range Alexander McQueen label has presented for Pre-Fall 2012 season is very diverse. It is composed of over 50 lovely and at the same time edgy designs, some of which could be perfect for office wear while others are bolder and more youthful.

20120910-103501.jpg

There are sexy stilettos, peep-toe and lace pumps, eye-catchy Mary-Janes and wedges adorned with golden studs, ankle boots with laces, fur, buckles and zippers, knee-high boots and sandals as well as flats with sculls and printed loafers in Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2012 collection.

20120910-103542.jpg
The color scheme of Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall 2012 collection is already quite autumnal with red, wine, dark violet and brown colors dominating over the other hues. There are a lot of black pairs and quite a few deep green ones.

Louis Vuitton Handbags Pre-Fall 2012 Collection:

There are only a few bag styles in Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 2012 collection but those are enough to provide a fashionista with pieces for every occasion. There are lovely satchels for office wear, shoulder bags to look stylish in streets, bright backpacks, and simple but exquisite clutches.

20120907-171626.jpg

All the bags in Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 2012 range are made of chic high quality leather. Bright colors are a must. Some items come with mixed hues and colors blocked which looks very interesting and unusual.

20120907-171702.jpg

Speaking about designs we have to mention they are rather minimalistic especially compared to Louis Vuitton’s signature designs. However, this freshness is good and will definitely be appreciated by customers. See the whole collection in the gallery below.
