With this look I interpreted a few details which inspired me during last weeks fashion shows. I began by layering a long leather coat under a cropped shearling jacket, creating visual lines of varying lengths, an opportunity to mix fabrics and textures. Before shearling made its way down the runways of NYFW, it was already making a strong statement on the streets—those in the know already donning the seasons coziest essential. Kanye was spotted in London a few days ago wearing a vintage Vivienne Westwood shearling coat, if you needed anymore convincing.

The neckline of next season: All or nothing at all. From the chest baring deep V décolletage to finding your inner Steve Job’s by stocking up on a vast assortment of mock turtlenecks. Whether it is a turtleneck, a simple piece of cloth around the collar or a statement chocker, finding a creative way to adorn the neck is key. One of the most intriguing (and totally free!) ways to decorate your head mantle is the effortless tuck of the hair into a turtleneck, coat, or scarf, a look I instantly fell for at Sally LaPointe’s afterparty, by the designer herself. One British designer took this idea to the extreme and used hair as a neck accessory!

To juxtapose 'covering up' several designers showed deep V neck tops and dresses in their collections (Jason Wu, Victoria Beckham, DVF, J. Mendel.) The best thing to do: Combine both styles by wearing a turtleneck under a plunging V neck (Thakoon, Mara Hoffman, Delpozo.) Here, I decided to take it one step further and layer a high necked lace blouse under a V neck sweater, the ultimate Fall 2015 trendfecta. (Zimmermann, Thakoon)

Lace turtlenecks and pants are considered next seasons basics —a continuation of the leg veil, and now chest veil, leaving a bit more to the imagination while retaining a sensual mystery in covering up.

Completely bare legs? Out. Cover them with black opaque leggings, polka dot tights or Proenza Schouler’s monster fishnets. When in doubt, wear lace—or any sheer fabric you can get your hands on . . . over and under everything!
