Product Descriptions for MATCHESFASHION

 

Roksanda's Resort 2019 collection is a tactile experience, brimming with distinctive textures and patterns such as the ones seen on this black Orlena dress. It's crafted from mid-weight twill and the structured bodice and flared skirt are decorated with multicoloured geometric jacqaurds and overlapping embroidered shapes that remind of the designer's interest in Modernist visual traditions. Style it with burgundy leather flats to pull out some of the warmer hues threaded within.

Prada's much-noted inventive streak is showcased in these black pumps, which were created exclusively for MATCHESFASHION.COM to celebrate the Carlos Place opening. They're crafted in Italy from glossy patent leather with arch and ankle straps and florescent green-trimmed flame appliqué suspended from the strap and solid heel. Wear them to bring an eye-catching energy to evening looks.

Equal parts smart and sophisticated, this navy pinstripe jacket from Max Mara's more relaxed counterpart will see you gracefully into the first days of autumn. It's made from a mid-weight wool blend and sharply tailored to fall loosely over the frame, complete with a single button fastening, a duo of flapped pockets, and a satin interior lining. Take full advantage of the contrasting hues and add a black knit and white trousers for a cohesive cold-weather edit.

Pleated skirts such as the one seen on this midnight-blue dress were a key element of Bottega Veneta's Resort 2019 collection, and an elegant way to demonstrate the house's keen architectural eye. It's built with an elegant high neck and a structured bodice off-set by the fluid femininity of the undulating hem. Add a satin clutch and block heels for a demure evening ensemble.

Look briefly at Rebecca Taylor's red dress and you could miss the intricate heart applique that fades into the rich burgundy red silk – giving the surface a slight sheen as the light hits. They're interspersed with the dainty white ‘blurry heart’ prints, a signature for AW18, and enliven the wrap style piece, which features a gathered waist, optional tie, and charming ruffle hem. Add drop earrings and an embellished bag for a feminine all-hours look.

 Matty Bovan’s AW18 collection drew inspiration from an unexpected but nonetheless elegant source: the designer’s grandmother, whose personal style is evoked in pieces such as this brown tweed jacket – seen on the AW18 runway. It’s made in the UK and structured with darts that pull it in slightly at the back – giving the straight shape a discreetly cinched waist, and is finished with exposed and fraying seams. Team it with the matching skirt and add jewellery to make a confident statement.

 The smooth curvatures of Aesther Ekme's tan brown Sac bag speak to the Copenhagen label's emphasis on design simplicity and high quality. It's crafted from leather with a top handle and adjustable shoulder strap, opening with a concealed magnetic fastening to reveal a leather interior with two sections divided with a slip pocket. Set it against a backdrop of neutral shades to pay homage to the understated sophistication of the house.

 Seen on Jacquemus' AW18 runway, this dark brown jumpsuit oozes with the elegant sensuality of the collection, the mood of which came to the designer while he was walking around Souks in Morocco. Fitted across the bust with thin halter straps and a ruched bra that ties at the back, it loosens through the mid-section and opens into wide legs. Add suede shoes in a caramel brown to summon the warm neutral palette of the show.

 The elegant simplicity of Theodore Warre's gold Gypsy earrings has made them a favourite among the sartorially conscious. They're made from sterling silver coated with 18kt gold and fasten with a slip through feature. Wear them with androgynous shirt collars to embrace the label's clean-line version of femininity.

 Known for revisiting heritage labels, Junya Watanabe has appropriated a classic Reebok style for AW18 — revamping these white high-tops with silver-tone metal spikes. They're crafted from leather and retain the hallmarks of the iconic sportswear label such as the Velcro straps and fabric logos, elevated on rubber soles. Style them beneath modern dresses for a confident look with nonconformist appeal.
