Autumn/Winter 2013 Trends + How We Accessorise Them

We check out four Autumn/Winter catwalk trends that will be in a store near us soon, and see how we will accessorise them.

Masculine/Feminine

A big A/W ’13 trend, this boy meets girl game play was all over the catwalk – think pinstripe tailoring, big coats, grey tones.  We’ll get into this battle of the sexes game, setting strong male tailoring against feminine accessories.

We might wear Dramatic earrings like Dolce & Gabbana and Philip Lim or a feminine brooch a la Emporio Armani for a real feminine touch. We might also opt for a flighty hair accessory, a waist-enhancing belt or big cocktail ring.

Punk Rebel

For this trend think edgy textures and details: zippers, chains, PVC, leather and studs.  Designers are finding toughening up. Colours and patterns are bold (brash even) but are always set against black.   Donatella Versace christened her collection ‘Vunk’.

We will dress our Rebel look with suitably edgy accessories: be it a studded cuff, a chain-mail cuff or a studded clutch.  Or we might possibly express our very own ‘Vunk’ by layering a mismatched set of chain necklaces and pendants.

The Lady

In A/W 13 the Lady gazes back at an age of classic tailoring but with a definite hint of sedition.  There’s a Hitchcockian feel about the skirt suits and the nipped waists.  The new skirt is off-kilter.  Heavy footwear, oversized clutches and ultra contemporary accessories strip all the primness from this look.

We’ll be accessorising with big cocktail rings inject contemporary with a capital C into vintage; or large chunky necklaces. Clutch bags will be very much of the here and now.

Baroque

A rich and opulent aesthetic. We love Dolce and Gabbana’s mosaic and fresco inspired tunics complete with gem-encrusted crowns and Alexander McQueen’s Elizabethan theme. Cavalli and Balmain show us a more wearable take on this trend – one we might find in a pared down form on the High Street soon – with baroque-style prints, metallics and embellishments.

Ornate jewellery comes into its own in this trend so we’ll be accessorising with trophy earrings and extravagant cuffs. Gem-encrusted pieces complement this look perfectly so we might try an heirloom bag.

Our Fashion intern Alice makes her top of the pops selection from the Gilda’s Tryst collection to pull together an airy summer look that works a treat for city and coastal living both.

She chooses classic gold and white accessories to style with her simple white tank and colourful print pants. Here she wears GOLD STACKING RINGS with pearl and citrine gemstones and some ANIMAL GOLD BANGLES (available in store).

Here Alice pairs two gold chains - a chunky chain necklace and a fine chain necklace - for a simple throw-on statement; she wears the GOLD HEAVY SPIGA CHAIN and the GOLD HEAVY ROLO CHAIN. The MOTHER OF PEARL GOLD RING and WHITE AGATE GOLD DROP EARRINGS (available in store) look like they're almost gleaming against her tanned skin.

Jewellery and Accessories Styling: Gilda’s Tryst Look of the Day

This week fashion intern Camille shows us how a working girl can throw on a few jewellery and accessories to transition a run-around work-day outfit to something fit for a night out with friends.

Here she wears the ONYX GOLD BANGLE with a selection of GOLD STACKING RINGS and makes a black and gold themed statement with the BLACK AND GOLD SPARKLY CUFF and the GOLD STUDDED CLUTCH BAG.

To inject some colour to the mix she wraps the OCTOPUS SILK SCARF.

These LABRADORITE GOLD TEARDROP EARRINGS finish the look off quite nicely thank you.

JEWELLERY AND ACCESSORIES STYLING: Look of the Day

Enjoying the unbroken stretch of Mediterranean-like sunshine? We are too, and today our fashion intern Camille styles her sunshine-ready outfit, pulling together a selection of jewellery and accessories from the Gilda’s Tryst collection. Her aim: create a fresh summer-time look.

Here she wears a chiffon blouse and home-made cutoffs with a range of gold and pastel gemstone jewellery: she layers amazonite, rose quartz and pearl STACKING RINGS in gold. STACKING BANGLES with various gemstones grace one arm, while on the other is the ROSE QUARTZ BANGLE (available in store). To ensure head-to-toe chic she also wears the AMAZONITE GOLD DROP EARRINGS. The TURQUOISE CROSS BODY BAG is a definitive burst of colour.

Another accessorising option is this pretty PEACOCK MODAL SCARF perfect for cool summer evenings.
