We are all certain to be wrapped up in style during any pro-longed cold spells this season. Fur graced the AW14 shows with magical prowess. There is something instantly glamorous about a lady in a fur stole. It takes us back to old Hollywood. This year fluffy pieces came floating down the runway in all the pastel shades of the rainbow, in deeper sensual hues, Arctic snow furs and forever your friend blacks. But this time the trend was all about having fun with fashion. Say goodbye to your ugly duffle coat and say hello to new age glamour..enter the future with some fun fur.
See my take on the fun fur trend above. Modelled by the beautiful Ksenija. A creative collaboration piece. Photography - Aga Debiec. Hair and make up - Suzanne Wells. Styling - Sian Louise Vance.
According to the critics this trend is all about "Energy, fun and Englishness!" Each designer has given their fur pieces a different updated identity this season. Old fashioned femininity has been brought forward. There is such a huge variety of soft to the touch garments to choose from including coats, skirts, boleros, handbags and even dresses.
Here is a rundown on how the designers have done fur...take some inspiration on how to wear yours and look out for the high street versions hitting the shops over the next few months.
Have some fluffy fun with intarsia Knits at Topshop unique.
It's all about kitschy witchy-ness at Roskanda Ilincic.
Say feminine with feathers at Dries Van Noten.
Blur the lines with strength and fragility at Aider Hackerman.
Roll in a ferrago of fun fur with Fendi.
Channel a cinematic femme fatale with Sensuality and tactility at Loewe.
I know that some people may be almost violently opposed to wearing fur...most of the designer fabrics are now manmade. I hope not to offend anyone with this trend report.
Would you rather go naked than wear fur? If the answer is yes....you don't need to miss out on this trend.....fake it. Have fun.x
