Unless you spent 2018 underwater, you probably noticed an explosion of faux fur and velvet in fashion this year. These two fabric trends were absolutely everywhere, filtering down from the couture runways and adding a touch of (animal cruelty-free) glamour to wardrobes everywhere.

We looked on with pride as London Fashion Week became the first international fashion event to ban genuine fur, and we watched as faux fur trims, collars, jackets and coats became ubiquitous on catwalks, in high-end design and all over the high street. Faux

Saint Laurent’s Ready To Wear Spring 2019 collection at Paris Fashion Week yesterday. A glittering procession of classic Saint Laurent style: dripping in glamour, sultry appeal and decadent fabric.

Heavy sequins, deluxe glamour.

Harper, Cruz, Romeo, Brooklyn and David Beckham proudly looked on as mummy V took her audience on a journey through delicate shirts and drapey knits and silks, taffeta trench coats and pretty, polished satins. Luxurious pieces with flattering lines, that remain wearable and accessible for modern women.

There were the

New York Fashion week 2018 kicked off last Thursday with the usual flurry of celebrities, media throngs and of course,  gorgeous designer clothing lighting the path to our 2019 wardrobes.

Amidst the fabrics, fashions and festivities, Ralph Lauren’s 50^th anniversary extravaganza was held and took its place as the glittering centrepiece of this years schedule. The celebration on Friday night, at the Bethedsa Terrace in Central Park, began with a runway show and ended with a lavish, black-tie dinner party, with a guest list comprised of the very famous, the very wealthy and the very beautiful, all paying grateful homage to Ralph Lauren.

So, what are Stella, Givenchy, Balenciaga and Fendi doing this Autumn/Winter to keep things warm and stylish? Wrapping us up in chic houndstooth, plaid and herringbone prints, that’s what.

Forever elegant and a nice twist on traditional plain greys, browns and blacks. These patterns add life to your coat fabric without taking over your entire look.

Stella thinks we should all be rugged up in relaxed, oversized versions that leave plenty of room for chunky winter layers underneath (and a few Christmas puddings too...)

Ladies suits are back in business, and we don't just mean in the boardroom. Flowing pant suits are hugely in vogue at the moment, with many Autumn/Winter and Resort ‘18/19 collections featuring chic suit styling for the modern woman. The best fabric for women's suits is a wool gaberdine, a wool crêpe or

Wintery wardrobes tend to drift toward monochrome looks and dark, sombre colours, in keeping with the dull, grey skies. We all do it.  But there’s really no reason not to mix it up with a flash of bright colour – even just a little bit.  And if Oscar De La Renta, Valentino and Armani know anything about fashion, take note: lively fuchsia and hot pink colours are a thing for Autumn/Winter 201

Dolce & Gabbana have a secret. But like all good secrets, it was bound to be discovered eventually. Something this spectacular really can’t stay hidden for long.

Amidst the roar of Milan Fashion Week, right before their scheduled ready-to-wear show, the designers stage a surreptitious, hyper-exclusive runway show of their latest couture evening wear. Those invited are their top 0.1% of clientele and a sprinkling of influential fashion editors, who are granted coveted access to the now not-so-secret, 'secret show'. The collection is always breath-taking, each item a meticulously crafted piece of Dolce & Gabbana’s signature vibrant and sumptuous Sicilian couture. Edgy and shocking, often. Glamorous and unique, always.

Dolce and Gabbana’s spring/summer ’18 collection didn’t disappoint. Those gathered to watch looked on in awe as models glided down the catwalk in magnificently detailed fabric and captivating designs. The designers used fabrics worthy of their ini

Dior’s Fall ’18 couture line is so beautiful that words are hardly necessary.

Romantic pleated silks, satins and crêpes, in blush tones, soft, creamy nudes and dusky greens.

Delicate straps, open décolletage, exposed necks and shoulders.

Sculpted matte duchess satins and luxe cashmere suitings.

Chanel set sail last night, literally.

All the stops were pulled out in the halls of the Grand Palais as Karl Largerfeld presented this year's cruise collection, a concept originally invented by Coco Chanel of showing a collection outside the seasonal catwalk schedule back in 1919.

Known for their fabulous runways, Chanel did not disappoint constructing a 5624 square meter Cruise in the middle of the catwalk.
