The Cloth Behind the Clothes: Part Six – METALLICS

We end our Fall Fashion Fabric Guide series with a bang… or shall we say with bling – metallics!  Let’s face it, women are always going to gravitate towards the shiny and pretty.  Sophisticated pieces of lamé, silks, brocades and jacquard were heavily represented on the runways this year, ranging in silhouettes from 60s-inspired to… Continue reading The Cloth Behind the Clothes: Part Six – METALLICS

The Cloth Behind the Clothes: Part Five – WHITE COLLARED SHIRT
