‘On trend’ contemporary women’s styles are taking a slight step back.
Canadian womenswear brand Judith & Charles recently unveiled its latest Fall 2014 collection of sophisticated tailoring and classic contours. Geometric lines inspired by strong urban architecture set against nature’s softened textures and monochromatic, minimalist, colour palette, this season offers high quality fabrics (alpaca, cashmere, silk, pony hair, and leather sourced from Italy) and innovative textures as well as introducing tonal jacquard, cloque and bonded jersey. Many of the style are traceable to 1960s mod influences as evidenced by shift dresses, mock turtlenecks and hounds-tooth motifs.
Gia’s breakdown:
- Sleek
- Versatile
- Easy to wear and pair
- conservative, but just enough style to get you through the day at the office and early evening for dinner with friends
- Packable for trips out of the city
