The fashion industry's obsession with staying ahead of the pack is perhaps best exemplified by the unveiling of fall looks during Fashion Week 2010 in February, nearly seven months before the official start of fall. Designers, socialites and celebrities showed up in chic droves to New York City to get that ever-necessary edge on upcoming trends. With this guide, you, too, will be well-versed with the latest standout looks for when the temperatures drop back down again.
\nCopper and Bronze Metallics\nSilver and gold held the spotlight for a few seasons, but now richer and darker hues take center stage. Seen at Zac Posen, Diane von Furstenberg and Elie Tahari, cooper and bronze lend a more sophisticated edge to dresses and skirts.
Eclectic, Bohemian Prints\nA staple for pattern-heavy designer Anna Sui, bohemian prints also made appearances at Carolina Herrera and Nanette Lepore. Look for smaller-scale prints in deeper colors for the most of-the-moment pieces.
Textured Fabrics\nBoring, ordinary fabrics have been replaced with garments that are as fun to look at as they are to touch. Designers absolutely loved this look - everyone from Brian Reyes to Cynthia Steffe, Tibi, Tracy Reese and Monique Lhuillier showcased these statement-making fabrics in dresses, scarves and sweaters.
Mini Skirts and Dresses\nDespite low temperatures, the hottest hemlines now are short and sweet. J. Mendel, Lela Rose and Naeem Kahn made patterned tights or bare legs prized accessories with their leg-baring renditions.
