Some Fashions To Love For Fall 2006

September 25, 2006

Check out our new online store at 
wwwdotpriscillasclosetdotnet for the best deals on great 
new fall things. We have free shipping on this site for the 
time being and if it works well for us, we'll keep to that 
policy. 
 
From chunky knit sweaters over delicate dresses and 
fine-gauge sweater knit skirt suits, woven fabrics (like 
denim or twill) made way for sweater knits.  
 
Some of the best fall looks came in the form of draped and 
oversized knits. Ivory, gray and black were really 
important for their go-with-everything properties along 
with the pretty soft pastels that added a nice punch to 
black, burgundy and cognac velvets. 
 
 
Menswear prints -- houndstooth, plaids, checks, pinstripes 
-- are always favorites for fall, but this season designers 
combined oversized patterns, and even mixed prints in new 
interesting ways. 
 
If you want to wear this look, you could concentrate on 
wearing one bold menswear pattern (even in small doses like 
a hat or scarf it makes a statement).  
 
Experiment with soft pieces like the draped skirt in 
menswear patterns, as opposed to the tailored pieces it 
often comes in. 
 
The hottest suit on the runway was the pantsuit, long a 
staple of working women everywhere. Ralph Lauren's sharply 
tailored haberdashery pantsuits were fabulous (as were his 
loden jacket paired with matching leggings -- the new 
sharpest of the new suits!) I always loved this look for 
all ages--the kids can wear solid tights and micro skirts 
with long bulky sweaters and even longer scarves. The rest 
of us can always work up a combination of some but not all 
of these elements.
