Kenneth Cole experiments with daring fabric alliances for Fall 2013. You’ll see exaggerated pairings like fleece on fleece, puffy on puffy but also some mixing and matching of unlikely friends—puffy with leather (is this a call for cross-taste tolerance?). There’s also cool bi-fabric creations, like a charcoal wool jacket with a shiny, white plasticized front panel. [...]

Lacoste sent models onto the runway though a multi paneled, white cube, further delving into their spacey vision of the future—technical fabrications, elongated torsos and exaggerated collars. It was a collection with two distinct feelings. There were plenty of clinical looks with sharp lines, lots of creams and whites and at least one men’s rubber looking trench. There was [...]

Despite having been influenced by a photo book about heading to the rustic landscape of Tibet on a pilgrimage to find the Buddha, General Idea’s Fall 2013 comes off as completely sleek and modern.
