They left an indelible mark on the autumn-winter runways and sealed a season defined by boldness. Nine strong trends to follow without hesitation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Affirmative Leopard<\/span><\/h2>\n

Some call it vulgar, garish, outdated: that’s just lukewarm nonsense.\u00a0<\/span>The spotted defiance of the\u00a0<\/span>leopard<\/span> is back<\/span>, and it’s precisely the ideal support this season to part with panache the throng of such ruminants hiding behind the invocation of a placid good taste that has never done anyone any favors. As if lustrous in the light from the vegetal humidity of an urban jungle, it appeared on tiptoe in a head-to-toe\u00a0<\/span>Fendi<\/span>\u00a0look before continuing its run with an acrobatic leap above the waist in a skirt by\u00a0<\/span>Marie Adam-Leenaerdt. <\/span>But it was perhaps on a sublime translucent vinyl suit <\/span>by Saint Laurent<\/span>\u00a0that the bite of its desirable pattern was most keenly felt. Whatever form it takes, the leopard is a second skin that distinguishes with adrenaline a salutary burst from the herd, the deliciously unsettling ally of the most discerning.<\/span><\/p>\n

Color block<\/span><\/h2>\n

As the days shorten and their brevity diminishes, he production of serotonin, essential for the body’s basic functions, <\/span>we must embrace\u00a0<\/span>bold colors<\/span>\u00a0that possess the remarkable quality of radiating a life of their own. It would be utterly irresponsible to succumb to these physical limitations when it’s possible to draw inspiration from the vibrant blood orange of a Saint Laurent dress, its broad shoulders brimming with enough light to reach spring unscathed, or to anticipate the blossoming of flowers by immersing oneself in the satiny roses of an improbable Comme des Gar\u00e7ons gown. And if the urgency of a shot of divine light is truly felt, for his first collection at\u00a0<\/span>Tom Ford<\/span>, Haider Ackermann presented a series of silhouettes whose beauty, worthy of a spring dawn in silk gabardine, will definitely ward off the threat of these bleak days.<\/span><\/p>\n

Night in broad daylight<\/span><\/h2>\n

As we now know,\u00a0<\/span>there’s no longer any valid reason to confine the comfort of nightwear to the domestic sphere\u2014the kind we’d love to wear in broad daylight<\/span>. To the delight of those who cherish the rest of their bodies and eyes, couture nightwear is the best card to play this fall. It’s possible to slip into the almost fluid beauty of a carmine satin nightgown by\u00a0<\/span>Ferragamo<\/span>\u00a0to effortlessly bridge the gap between bed and the next nap without sacrificing an ounce of elegance. Or to claim the right to relaxation in\u00a0<\/span>Prada, <\/span>where it’s not an admission of weakness, but rather a handcrafted comfort with pockets deep enough to accommodate the spirit of the times. Perhaps it’s in the sublime shimmer of a bronze and gold <\/span>Schiaparelli<\/span>\u00a0that the languid allure of pajamas demonstrates that, in the coming weeks, they will be the best embodiment of the philosophy of letting go applied to life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Intense leather<\/span><\/h2>\n

There’s no point in shouting; it’s rain that makes flowers grow, not thunder. Thus, power has nothing to do with the number of decibels we send to unsuspecting neighbors, but more often takes the form, more conducive to living together, of the whisper of a material whose music and scent together compose a living signature: that of skin.\u00a0<\/span>This autumn, we can still rely on leather to add weight to the silhouette and dynamism to the personal narrative<\/span>: B randon Maxwell drapes its suppleness around the body like a hand holding the full depth of ebony, while <\/span>Pieter Mulier<\/span>\u00a0has created a marvel of volume tied at the waist, its every movement making the folds sigh with pleasure. But it is at Herm\u00e8s that the house’s expertise blends into the most sophisticated interplay of cuts: ties, buckles, and fasteners combine their light ochre sensuality to punctuate its usual equestrian landscape with a\u00a0<\/span>fetishistic<\/span>\u00a0touch , unequivocally demonstrating that\u00a0<\/span>the role of the living is indeed to awaken what is dormant<\/span>\u00a0. Brandon Maxwell drapes a silhouette in leather swirls, Valentino sculpts a lace bust, and\u00a0<\/span>Max Mara plays with<\/span>\u00a0the depth of burgundy cashmere.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bordeaux<\/span><\/h2>\n

There’s always someone to remind us that we can’t have it all, which is truly annoying for several reasons. First, unless you’re a complete newbie, life has already made that clear, thank you very much. Second, because it’s simply not true: it’s all about focusing your attention in the right place, like this season <\/span>on burgundy<\/span>. Its admirable quality lies in its ability to combine multiple possibilities: both fresh and fiery, a spectacular swirl of velvet at Comme des Gar\u00e7ons, its shifting shades have embraced some of the season’s most beautiful silhouettes. At Max Mara, it took on the full depth of a cashmere drape accentuated by a touch of light at the waist, while at Tom Ford, it made a python-embossed vinyl coat dress radiate a captivating beauty, a perfect blend of sensuality and exquisite restraint.\u00a0<\/span>Ambiguous, it allows the enjoyment of the in-between, the imprecision, the nuance, everything the world needs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fatal lace<\/span><\/h2>\n

It’s a bit like a message sent after closing time: rarely demure, often laden with ulterior motives, and always more effective when finely crafted. Far from being a harmless doily, it ignites the zeitgeist with a clear ambition: to pass off the ultra-suggestive as exceptional craftsmanship. Carmine\u00a0<\/span>lace<\/span>\u00a0climbs the body like an idea too good to be true, concealing little more than its intentions. With a perverse, glacier-blue elegance, it splits to the top of the thigh on a Ludovic de Saint Sernin silhouette, playing with alternating opacities, and adorns the curled contours of an Orlando blouse, whipped like cream, designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri, who deployed a wealth of technical lightness for\u00a0<\/span>Dior<\/span>. Beneath its fragile exterior, it is <\/span>the ultimate weapon of formidable patience<\/span>\u00a0and proves that one can move forward transparently and still have control of operations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Upward curves<\/span><\/h2>\n

Getting straight to the point is great and saves time,\u00a0<\/span>but the curve knows what the straight line doesn’t: seduction is never about going straight.<\/span>\u00a0Luckily, this season abounds with these exquisite curves that provide all the flavor and richness we demand from the backwoods of fashion.\u00a0<\/span>Sarah Burton<\/span> designed for Givenchy an arched shoulder line, a gothic silhouette, both strong and supple, through which the face becomes the keystone t, thanks to the genius of a twisted leather seam. At Comme des Gar\u00e7ons, the swirls of a cascade of midnight blue fabric would make anything else seem like a trickle of lukewarm water. But it was at Ala\u00efa that Pieter Mulier pushed the ordinary limits of the spiral with his work on a thread that seems to have no more end than beginning. Through wildly exhilarating curves, he propels the sensational beauty of a collection into which one plunges headlong.<\/span><\/p>\n

Total black<\/span><\/h2>\n

We can, we must, throw ourselves into it as into a party that was supposed to last two hours and ends three days later: up to our necks, embracing alternative realities.\u00a0<\/span>An open door to the absolute, black is the most loyal, the most permissive, and the most eloquent of traveling companions, a shadowy blessing leading to the avalanche.<\/span>\u00a0Total absorption, it cloaks in eclipse a velvet vine presented by Peter Copping for his debut at Lanvin, of which only the skillful contours are revealed, while the interplay of materials allows a few accents to lick with reflections the impeccable alibi of a sensual composition of leather and woven fabrics smothered in shadows, signed by the excellence of Nad\u00e8ge Vanh\u00e9e’s work for\u00a0<\/span>Herm<\/span>. Finally, it is in the manner of a memory whose details cannot be grasped that he blurs with his vaporous glooms a\u00a0<\/span>Chanel<\/span>\u00a0blouse of twilight beauty, laced with satin as the last rampart before total dissolution into the abyss.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fur fiction<\/span><\/h2>\n

You only need to have experienced a slightly too long stay in the wild to know that natural isn’t always preferable to artifice. The same is true for fur:\u00a0<\/span>the fact that it no longer comes from the backs of animals bred for wide-open spaces only makes it more desirable and malleable for all kinds of aesthetic fantasies<\/span>. The coming months will embrace its dramatic versatility, capable of punctuating silk veils with playful, tawny accents, like in a dream of ancient Scandinavia by\u00a0<\/span>Chlo\u00e9, <\/span>or of embodying the family mink coat draped over the arm of an heiress, forging her own path with all the confidence permitted by <\/span>Miu Miu<\/span>. But it is at\u00a0<\/span>Fendi<\/span> , puffed up like winter lace in kid mohair, yet you could almost feel the incisors, that she deploys all the exceptional know-how of a Roman empire skillfully directed by three generations of women who know exactly how to tell their story.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
