We’re looking at gathered bell shaped cuffs, and opulent looking fur cuffs too, the catwalk gave us Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors, all favouring this most ostentatious of cuffs in Womenswear Fall-Winter.

Red is the colour, forget blue, its red that’s in for the girls.The boys have got their greys and we have the reds.It can come in any shade you like, whether it’s scarlet, tomato red, crimson or a darker shade of red altogether, as long as its red. Designers promoting this most vibrant of colours were Dior, Marni and Salvatore Ferragamo.
Debutante
The debutante look featured décolletage and tulip skirts (similar to the 80s) with stiff satin. Dresses with empire lines were worn with heavy rubber shoes, and bright opera length leather gloves were worn in spray on green.
Bold and brave
Bold colours come in vivid graphic patterns from Dior and colour blocking from Jonathan Saunders. There’s clashing colours too in there, with florals, the type of thing you’d usually see on a chair but with patchwork suede. These florals were worn with different patterns together to create a fusion of bright colours.
