Favorite of the Day: Gabriele Colangelo

The peplum continues to be the shape of the season, but as we move towards the tail end of fashion month, I've begun to tire of it. If I'm honest, I've been tired of it for much longer.

What I never tire of is are those who play with shapes and silhouettes in ways that don't fall into the "Follow the Leader" game that one so often sees in the fashion world. Gabriele Colangelo avoided all such traps. There was sharp darting, rounded edges, and semi-deflated balloons.

And there were, of course, coats that I wanted to make mine immediately.
