Michael Kors Fall 2012





Michael Kors continued his usual design philosophy this season.
Luxurious, timeless pieces were on display. The Michael Kors woman appears to have journeyed off into the rustic wilderness and found sanctuary in a decadent cabin lodge.
Tartans and plaid were key elements in the collection. The fabric featured on ponchos, capes and coats.
Fur was statement making, seen on collars of lace blouses, leather gloves, stoles and gilets.
There is no excuse this winter for not looking warm and chic this season. Mongolian fur coats were absolutely stunning in soft silver,grey, vermilion, ivory and fawn.
Tweed and leather shifts with scalloped hemlines offered sharp and sleek tailoring. This look was complete with wayfarers.
Cable knit turtlenecks were paired with champagne , lace skirts. Gold sequin, drop waist, flapper dress, worn by Karmen Pedaru added plenty of glitz and glamour. Hounds tooth, cigarette style pants offered an alternative to plaid.
Accessories included oversized fur totes, fox fur tails attached to clutches, black ankle boots with chrome chunky heel, T bar Mary Jayne's and fur boots which had a Yeti like quality to them.
Charcoal, chunky, ribbed socks were prevalent on the runway, these complimented charcoal, wool, arm warmers.
Looks were frequently brought together with belts. Think either super skinny or wide waist cinchers.
No doubt this collection will delight Kors's avid American clientele.
Although I might not be able to afford anything in this highly covetable collection, I recently purchased Kors by Michael Kors, Jada, suede, lace up, wedge bootie for $240. I LOVE that I have a little piece of Michael Kors in my wardrobe!
