The Best of...

…what lies ahead!
Although we still think in terms of mini dresses and bikinis, we can not deny the evidence: the winter is just around the corner. In Vogue.es forward you the very best of everything that lies ahead. Our list of the Marc Jacobs opens that far from 80 years to revisit the use of colors and elegant lady winks. Insurmountable.

Although it is not merely a collection of autumn-winter 2010 resort but the first sample of the reborn Vionnet is a current, stylish, sensitive, and drawn up the legacy of the designer.

Marc Jacobs again, this time for Louis Vuitton, wasted pouring fresh creativity. But how is it that impossible mix volumes, and ochentera elements reminiscent of the cartoons without dying in the attempt.

Leaving aside (finally) the futuristic aesthetic, Balenciaga takes the best of the legacy of the creator to give a tribute to the master collection Guetaria. Feminine, optimistic and decisive.

Chloé has become the best ambassador for the naïve and romantic aesthetics without falling into obvious. This winter we are again with a surprising collection pure, clean and full of subtle details.

Unrelated to the rumors that place him as the successor of Lagerfeld at the helm of Chanel, Albert Elbaz updates the mystery and sophistication of 40 years in key twenty-first century for Lanvin.

Olivier Theyskens draws a dreamlike and magical night with divas and somewhat stylized Gothic in his collection for Nina Ricci.

Far from sinking into autohomenaje, Alexander McQueen evolves not only in its dramatic style and sumptuous, but rather about a more conceptual own positions of Japanese designers.

As if a queen of snow were contemporary, Rodarte's wife for the next winter is cold but close. The Mulleavy sisters have become one of the most creative couples circuit fashion.

The circle closes, of course, Miuccia Prada, that by next winter rewrites the austere aesthetic, almost post-war, built from rough fabrics and patterns and very strong arms.
