Cocooning Comfort This look is all about security and wellbeing: “cocooning” is the magic word here. There is a great presence of natural looks. Informal and close to nature are the keywords. Knitwear, thick jerseys, felted wool, lambskin and fur are important. Layered and wraparound looks are the core silhouettes. The products should be warm and cosy: chunky knit cardigans, ponchos or capes and parkas and jackets made of hightech

fabrics.

Nonchalant Luxury

This is also a very “rich” and feminine look, which is about stylishly making an impact with opulence and glamour. References are made to this look’s most important statement: “sensual opulence”. Voluminous draping with sculptural shapes is important here. New, unusual colour combinations and imaginatively decorated fabrics and details define this look, which is also a lot more wintery. This comes in the shape of rich fur details and accessories, flannel coats and hairy or napped woollen fabrics. The colour scheme is a combination of violet, pink, petrol and different brown tones.

JEWEL

Collection

CMY

Midnight Jewels “Shine like a star!” Sparkling sequinned outfits set the tone for this party season: sequins glamorously emphasise the shoulders and reinforce the new styling, which involves a lot of wrapping and gathering. Tops and dresses are showing boudoir inspirations, glamorous back décolletés adorn party tops. Lace detailing, slits and transparency add extra highlights. The core products are bustier dresses and mini dresses, dresses with full-length zips, narrow dresses with drapes, shiny waistcoats with waterfall edging, velvet blazers and dressy overalls. Blue and petrol tones, dark green, peacock or fuchsia and violet are combined with black and grey. Later in the season they will be joined by champagne, bordeaux and cherry.

Country College This is a playful college look with strong country influences. Jackets are focusing on uniform details; military-folklore elements are important in general. The core products of this look are duffle coats, lambskin jackets, knitted ponchos or cardigans, checked skirts, college blazers and – for the brave – winter shorts! A central silhouette is the checked woollen shift dress, combined with chunky knit scarf. Cord, authentically washed denim and rough woollen fabrics make an appearance. Coloured checks, knit patterns, country flowers, folklorestyle prints and colourful stripes should also not be missing. Printed bandanas underline the playful statement of this look. Brown with petrol or turquoise tones and violet define the colour scheme.
