• Have you heard about the black lace at Prada? Everyone is raving, and with good reason.
• The designer for Gianfranco Ferré left the company just before the runway show; some critics thought it showed. You decide.
• If you're sick of the baggy-sack look, stay away from Pringle of Scotland.
• Belstaff has that whole buttoned-up and boxy look down pat.
• It's so refreshing to look at the warm winter whites from Blugirl.
• Is a furry man purse really what a gentleman wants for fall '08? For better or worse, Emporio Armani seems to think so.
• Without question, the Desperate Housewives of New York will be tearing apart the Upper East Side in these La Perla suits.
• Some critics complained the wide-leg pants at Ferragamo hid the brand's signature shoes, but the sacrifice may have been worth it for such a fluid look.
• Poufy hair (finally!) and equally lively looks in leopard prints and purples showed at Moschino.
