The AF Vandevorst AW12 collection is another example of the upcoming fall season's obsession with oversize winter accessories. First it was Marc Jacobs' gigantic fur hats and now AF Vandevorst is introducing face-engulfing scarves. Perhaps it is that these designers want people to focus more on the body rather than the face.
Unveiled during Paris Fashion Week, the AF Vandevorst AW12 collection is not just about the scarves. The fashion line is also rife with rich wrap jackets, luxe leather accents and tailored pant suits. All of the outfits were designed in a palette of neutrals and blacks with the occasional rusty reds.
The AF Vandevorst AW12 collection wrestles between a feminine and masculine identity. Nevertheless, both work together to create stunning and elegant ensembles perfect for the fall season.
