10 inevitable hits of the winter wardrobe
EVERY SEASON we talk about things that it makes sense to add to your wardrobe. So this time we chose 10 items of clothing and footwear that you will most likely inevitably buy in the next three months. Just because they will be in every store and on every mannequin.
Colored fur coat
The popularity of colored fur this winter has reached its apogee. Especially in demand in the coming months will be lamb fur. Remember that big furry coats look good not only in the key of the 70s - with boots with steady heels or boots on the platform - but also with wide loose jeans and sneakers, like in Marques'Almeida. However, nothing prevents you from wearing such fur coats with midi-length skirts, sweaters and men's shoes, like at the Marni show, and, of course, with a knitted total bow.

Sneakers with a fluff
Fur and sneakers are the two pillars of modern fashion. It is not surprising that the brands decided to combine both, and this season also showed sneakers and sneakers decorated with fluff. This shoe is rather decorative and will not fit every day (although it will look good with loose denim things). But for the festive exits, sneakers with a fluff are irreplaceable: wear them on New Year's Eve with silk things in a linen style - pajamas and dresses-shirts.

Textured sweater
Recently, we wrote why the brands massively set to work with knitwear and viscous, and, judging by the collections of the new season, the trend will remain with us for a long time. Particular attention should be paid to textured art-knitting, which came into fashion in the late 60s thanks to the work of Bill Gibb and Sonia Rykiel. Today we see how brands from Pringle of Scotland to Alexander Wang and Christopher Kane are actively introducing new technologies and experimenting with innovative wool and cashmere, showing sweaters, as if printed on a 3D printer. Agree, it is quite difficult to resist and not to buy one for yourself.

Mittens
About the big mittens remembered after the autumn show MSGM. Today, similar with fur can be found in Nazir Mazhar, and in many democratic brands. Objectively, there is no better accessory than mittens, for winter there is none. With them you will be able to seriously approach the making of a snowman this year and stop looking endlessly at the phone on the street - it’s just uncomfortable to hold it in mittens.

Things with optical prints
Sweaters, coats, woolen skirts and other things, decorated with optical prints, appeared in the collections of many brands from Kenzo to Dries Van Noten. Obviously, this hit trend will last in the top no more than one season. What, in general, does not prevent you from mixing different psychedelic drawings and getting dressed like that from head to toe, a landmark - shows by Proenza Schouler, Acne Studios and Kenzo. For those who prefer moderation in everything, we advise you to limit yourself to accessories, for example, a funny optical scarf (Acne and Monki have such).

Embroidery items
Prints go out of fashion - today they are crammed with embroidery and appliqués, which mark brands to adorn both evening dresses and casual sweatshirts. The most vivid example is Mary Katranza, who became famous for printing silk prints, but this season she switched to hand embroidery and work with threads.

Laconic decorations
Less is better. Minimalism touched accessories, so at the last shows you can see two extremes: either the almost complete lack of accessories, or minimalist necklaces, chains, neat rings, transparent bracelets and raw stones. The trend has affected even houses such as Versace, which this season combines discreet necklaces with neat dresses. Successful jewelry is in the collections of Loewe, Eddie Borgo, Marni, Celine, Tod's, Monique Péan, Dries Van Noten.

Short volume down jackets
Fashion on bombers influenced the design of down jackets. For example, brands from Topshop Unique and Alexander Wang to Marc Jacobs are advised to wear down jackets, which remotely resemble bombers, with mini-dresses and jackboots, as well as woolen midi skirts and boots. We advise not to forget about additional warming and to wear underwear and pants under skirts and skirts.

Sweater Dresses
The woolen dress, invariably evoking associations with the winter office dress code and the fashion of the older generation, is experiencing a comeback. Marks from Alexander Wang to Céline included it in winter collections and show how to wear this seemingly old fashioned thing. There are several options: you can wear a dress simply with warm tights and beautiful platform shoes or wear it with a voluminous short down jacket and massive shoes. Another option is to wear it as an elongated sweater on top of a midi skirt or pants.

Colored leather
Despite the fact that the skin this season, pressed suede, in the coming year, luxury brands return to fashion colored skin. Dresses, wide trousers, pencil skirts, crop tops, bombers, coats and miniskirts are now sewn from it. Combine all this is offered with transparent and silk things.
