Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall '07

February 20th 2007 09:16
I was browsing through some of the collections that were shown at London Fashion Week last week, my favourite having to be the Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2007 collection.

The range featured skivi's worn under long woolen knitted cardigans for men and women, belted at the waist for the women and worn over wide leg trousers for the men. These were layered under thick coats in varying lengths, in a mixture of greys, burgundies and plaid.

I love the way the contrasting silky dress peeks out from underneath the cardigan and at the sleeves.





He has created so many layers of contrasting textures and prints. The heavy coats are worn over delicate mini dresses and opaque stockings, and wide leg woolen trousers are balanced out by flimsy detailed blouses. So suited to an Australian winter!

The coats are all different lengths at the sleeves so that the what's underneath can be seen



Wide leg pants tucked into skater shoes. And it still looks elegant!


The cute accessories completed the collection; furry bonnets and berets with pom poms, long gloves and stacked skater style shoes and socks, and vintage inspired purses.



The overall look was a combination of Parisian school girl with a grungy skater feel.

Gotta be honest. I'm not really sold on the wide leg pants tucked into the shoes. It's a bit too 80's for me (I can definitely remember tight-rolling my jeans and tucking them into socks!).

Love the coat on the 3rd pic down!!

I think the pants tucked into socks was a skater/grunge inspired element, but yeah, I'm not too keen on it either...

If you liked that coat, you should check out the whole collection on style.com. The coats are fabulous!
