If, after viewing collections thus far, you were left wondering where you'll find your "street gear", then you can rest fulfilled with Miss Sixty. While we almost felt like it was a bit 'springy' for a fall collection we were eventually reassured with several cute and super shiny puffers. Prints were a big theme on pants, dresses, tops and tees in what appeared to be magazine pages on some. And of course the denim label supplied a range of washes for jeans and jumpers including the 80s-inspired acid-wash.

Aside from the unappealing distraction of the models' black lips, an obvious emulation of YSL 08, we loved Rachel Roy's well cut and comfortly chic collection. Black and gray were balanced out by the soft colors of blush, pale yellow and slate blue which came in column dresses, flannel suits, wool jackets, cigarette pants and peplum bustiers. The cut-out trend was visible in several of the slim body conscious dresses making this collection a nice departure from her usual puffs and poufs.
