Though grand sets and stacked front rows help define a designer’s world, the little details are where a vision can really begin to take shape. With clothes leaning matter-of-fact and pragmatic this season, there was a lot of room for eclectic accessories.
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen of The Row think you should reconsider your grandmother’s pearls. Tory Burch and co. are endorsing a pea-green pump. And why not? You already have them in black, white, and chocolate brown. Bags have gone fuzzy everywhere from Chanel to Loewe. And don’t leave home without your hat, whether it’s Vaquera’s pillbox balaclavas or Jean Paul Gaultier’s suited snood.
