The Fatima Lopes Fall 2014 Collection debuted at PFW 2014. The latest collection incorporates flapper-like headdresses and knotted-scarf styles for the Fall season. The fairly new designer is displaying daring pattern mixtures and eccentric designs.
Fatima Lopes’s Fall collection is splattered with geometric shaped patterns. The color palette for the collection sticks to neutral fall tones—beige, gray, brown, black and off-white. The skirts are wrapped in shiny fabrics. The cozy fall sweaters have striped patterns and feature intertwined scarfs within them. The tweed suite jacket notably has a scarf wrapped around the arm. The intertwined white and cream-colored scarf material brilliantly goes around the neck and spirals down the right arm.
The unique cozy fall fashions debuted by Fatima Lopes at PFW 2014 are bound to create a buzz for the young international designer.
