Mad for the plaid Michael Kors came out with a luxe look with a traditional East Coast wardrobe in a palette of red, black white and grey this Wednesday morning. With thick fox fur stoles and sheer lace inserts elongating the hemlines of the sliver thin pencil skirts it was all lady like for the women. The edge came in the color choices and his play with leather which mainly shrouded shoulders and collar bones. The buffalo check was oversized and came in everything from 1950’s style skirts to ponchos and suits.

We have been seeing a lot of red lace on the runway this fall and Kors was not without his, a simple long-sleeved lace sheath that stood out against the more lavishly layered looks. For the men it was more plaid in red and black. The camel colored run was specifically warm and cozy with nubby turtlenecks accompanied by parkas and backpacks (a huge male trend thus far), and the teddy bear coat seems to be a premonition about next winter being loads colder than the current record breaking year. Oscar-worthy red carpet gowns closed the show with slight peek-a-boo sheer panels acting as body sculptures helping to accentuate drop waists or the curved bodice seams we have seen popping up all over New York as well. As usual a gorgeous very Michael collection for Fall 2012.
