Trend Thursdays - fur (faux or real) and feathers

One of my favorite fashion writers from the New York Times, Cathy Horyn, is blogging live from Milan. 

She noticed the 70's trend at Gucci continuing for the Fall- so I had to share!  She explains, "so comprehensibly ’70s were Frida Giannini’s fur-covered shoulders, tie-at-the-neck blouses and chic gaucho trousers in flannel or suede with boots or platforms. The palette was all violet, wine, rust, emerald green, teal and a bit of cherry. Ms. Giannini also offered those lady-ish full-sleeved dresses with tiny belts that figure so prominently in memories and archives of the ’70s, along with fedoras and feathers."

The colors, the textures, the silhouettes!!  And whether you prefer real or faux fur... its up to you.  But, everything is to die for!
