Cabbage Patched

It looks like the color and pattern blocking we've been seeing for a while now has crashed into last season's retro silhouettes! One can't help but be intrigued by the patchwork patterns of fabrics, textures, colors and patterns showing up for Pre-Fall 2011!

From Jenni Kayne's literal "patch" pockets to Celine's delightfully explosive "Urban Camouflage," to Vionnet's fabulous fur, it's showing up in every variation imaginable...and it looks fresh every time!

Big Bear Hug

It already has a name - the "teddy bear" coat! It's ubiquitous on the runway for fall, in every color and length imaginable. Just another facet to the coziness of these Fall collections.
