Fall 2014: Hugo Boss

I happened to catch a bit of the Hugo Boss show streaming live yesterday, and thought to myself “Wow. Love that. And that. And that.” and was kind of surprised as I hadn’t paid much attention to Hugo Boss in the past. Jason Wu is in charge of design at the house now: a fantastic choice.  The whole collection was a stunner. Take notice. Click over to Style.com’s slideshow for fall, and utilize the ‘move it’ option — look 36 comes alive when it catches the light.

Details that make minimalist looks distinctive are the hallmark of Narciso Rodriguez’s designs. Each of these looks, while restrained in color palette, is quietly sumptuous. See the complete fall collection (there’s color, too) at Style.com.

I don’t know which I love more: the photo, or the gorgeous fisherman’s knit sweater. Let’s call it a tie. From Co for fall 2014: view the complete collection (full of romantic photos like the one above) at Style.com.

Week Seven: Sofie d’Hoore Spring 2014

February is half over, and I hope it’s not too much longer before I can buy — and wear! — some pieces from Sofie d’Hoore‘s spring 2014 collection.  I had a chance to preview the line last fall, and was completely won over by the print featured in look 15 below. (Are you surprised? I can tell you that it’s even prettier in person.) I prefer Sofie’s more fitted pieces, so the LBD in look 32 appeals as well. Dover Street Market recently picked up the line, and I hope they’ll stock at least a couple of my favorites: while we wait for spring, go peruse the complete collection at sofiedhoore.be.
