Oxford boots – stylish footwear of inter-season period

October 18th, 2007

So-called Oxford boots which became in inter-season period quite successful alternative to top-boots, can be considered an interesting novelty of the current season.

Modern technologies, rapid development of the society, change of guiding lines have led to numerous mutations of Oxford boots which after all came in woman’s fashion – together with trousers. In the beginning they simply copied men’s models – on a flat sole, with a man’s silhouette, with short lacing with 2-4 holes, with round or square toe.

Then forms became more and more graceful, and a heel – more and more high. Now they were offered to be worn not only with trousers, they were good with thin raincoats in man’s style, and with secretarial skirts-pencils.

Classical “gangster” boots with a combination of black and white (and also matte leather with varnished) can be seen this autumn at Alberta Ferretti, Bally, Eva Turner, Le Silla. It is, as a rule, high enough stiletto heel from a black leather, black toe with perforation, black lacing, and other details – from a white or light-cream leather.

However designers’ imagination is not limited today only to known models. For example, the leather can be combined with tweed or other textile materials (Etro, Stuart Weitzman). The Fashion House Miu Miu has presented very romantic retro-silhouette with a steady heel, rounded toe and soft flounces from perforated leather. And Dries Van Noten and Marni have put their “Oxfords” on platform soles.

The concept of the respectable glamour is ideally expressed in such footwear, as the Oxford boots. These are narrow-nosed boots from a leather of two-three colors, with small edgings and, as a rule, decorative punching.

Once they have appeared as a uniform footwear of Oxford’s students, then have left  borders of a campus, became a sign of a youth fashion, and then a certain symbol of a conservative British fashion as a whole.

They suit the main tendency of the current fashionable season ideally as they can be combined with business narrow skirts – pencils, and with trouser suits, and with elegant retro-coats, and with dense opaque tights.

As a whole the autumn footwear looks quite classical and does not cause tearing away. Moreover, it looks like today you can make purchases which will be worn some seasons successively: such things never become outdated.

However designers vigorously do not recommend us to give way to a black melancholy. Also support the offer with rather unexpected fashionable finds.

Among them, for example, shoes and boots in very light color spectrum, and invented the most romantic shades.
So Vicini offers high-heeled footwear of the most gentle pastel-pink shade which designers define as color of a morning fog.

Furla uses for footwear crocodile-like leather of completely unnatural painting – light pearly-grey with pearl play, and Chanel adds to this palette a metallized covering after an antique silver and bronze.
And there are some things from must have category – dye of autumn footwear in style when dark shades of one tone smoothly turn into more light ones. Remarkable footwear with such dye offers Prada and Laura Bellariva.

By the way, at such approach boots turn from the footwear intended for rainy weather and overcoming of puddles into elegant evening footwear. Casadei’s footwear will be even more elegant – thin stiletto heeled boots from creamy-beige suede.
Suede and varnish are altogether hits of shoe fashion this autumn, though it would seem, neither of them suit slushy weather.
However all this can be viewed as an echoes of the common designers’ passion for retro-tendencies of the recent periods.

Our legs for hot summer time have got used to freedom and open space, but colds have come and its time now to choose autumn footwear! It seems that we can do without boots this autumn.

Actually they are only narrow boots with moderately sharp toe.

Or rather, it something medium between traditional half boots, and usual demi-season boots in man’s style which were included in the wardrobe by liberated women of second half of the XX century.

This season they have quite classical form. Boots are offered to us mainly low (maximum up to an ankle), on high (or very high) heel of the steady form.

Stylistic difference at that is not present. Everything is rather moderate and traditional. Unless appear (for example, at Fendi) aggressive models in punk-rock style from a black leather with metal rivets and even thorns. But it is more likely an exception.


Trend of a season: Knitted things (Part 2)

October 10th, 2007

In general an idea of knitted coats – whether artificially deformed or slim line and glamour – is as never vital in the autumn season. Many designers offer to refuse from traditional trench coats and leather jackets. Knitted coats give much more charm, in particular in combination with light chintz and silk evening dresses. Moreover, they have one very important advantage: large stitch warms a body and sometimes the owner doesn’t need additional accessories even at zero temperature.

Images from the childhood are very popular this season – polar bears, penguins, lambs and deer – are all recollected in new collections from Stella McCartney and Chanel, who placed cheerful animals on knitted scarves and sweaters with wide neck. Youth brands have also used animals in their creations – irreplaceable in frosty days components of a wardrobe dazzle with various colors and figures in show-windows of H&M, Zara and Benetton. Designers from GAP have also taken care of the buyers, having offered them embroidered with the bear heads cozy roll-neck sweaters with a flannelette lining and dense leggings, decorated with elk’s muzzles. Christmas sweaters with deer in red-white color spectrum has also offered American retailer American Eagle Outfitters.

With the first autumn colds we dream about lovely country cottage, fireplace, cozy armchair, favorite book and a cup of strong tea and certainly, any soft thing. This autumn season warm plaid is replaced by cardigans, jackets and a sweater on large stitches.

Each woman of fashion should get in the current season at least one knitted thing. However not to waste money, but fallow the last tendencies, it is enough to fill up a wardrobe with one huge sweater or cardigan, the big and long scarf and a knitted full-length dress. Excellent variants are offered in the autumn collection from Giles – British fashion designer Giles Dikon was not frightened of shocking effect and led out on a podium models wrapped up in cardigans-plaids of maximum large knitting of olive and grey colors. Having added their image with massive scarves with pompons, he has created precise feeling of coziness in an icy cold. Huge scarves should be tied nevertheless atop of narrow leather or woolen dresses, fashionable this autumn roll-neck sweaters or even silk tops or evening dresses. They have sufficient width to warm you at the crucial moment.

More elegant knitted models of sweaters and dresses, not so strongly hiding female figure, can be met in collections of Italian fashion designer Alessandro Dell’Acqua (simple grey slim line cardigans and V-shaped sweaters), Calvin Klein (Italian Francisco Kosta has decorated black straight lines of sweaters with large plaits). Actually it is enough to look attentively – and you will find at least one knitted thing almost in each collection. Fashionable trend of the season has touched also evening dresses: gentle waistcoats of thin stitch decorate chiffon blouses from Carolina Herrera and knitted scarves are winded atop silk multilayered dresses from Vivienne Westwood.
