Designer Spotlight – Belstaff

Belstaff for womenswear just keeps getting better and better…

The collection for Fall 2013 oozed femininity(in a street-chic way, of course!) and luxury while still maintaining a reference to their roots in motosports.  There were flounce skirts, soft sweaters, and edgy-chic knee-high boots contrasted with rugged yet sleek outerwear including, of course, a biker jacket and the use of the oil-slick black waxed cotton for which they are famous.  I especially loved their added injection of luxury with fur trim, leather and high shine detail, and metallic embellishments (see last pic below).  Under the creative direction of Martin Cooper since 2011, Belstaff for Fall 2013 is, by far, my favorite of their collections!
