_Vogue'_s Fashion Guide for Fall 2014

The fall collectsions were dominated by a sense of energy and immediacy that speaks to the high-speed mobility of the digital age. All the functional outerwear and sporty footwear that we had come to rely on were elevated in a myriad of stylish ways—this is fashion that’s made to walk off the runway and right onto the street. Why not trade your biker jacket for shearling, and your lace-up oxford shoes for a polished white sneaker? The swinging beat of sixties London is alive and kicking, as is the vibrancy of Art Nouveau. Take your pick from the galleries of instantly gratifying new clothes coming out next season. The time for fashion that’s real and exciting is now.
