Quilted leathers, black sheering, pleated, skirt-bottom shirts and tops with lace-covered cut-outs are just some of the key elements of the new, diverse Alexis Mabille Fall/Winter 2012 collection. What may be one of my favorite collections of the year, features modern looks combined with more romantic ones of the French Revolution to create a style that references the past while reflecting the future of fashion.
Slim-fitting trousers with thigh-high leather coverings are a prevailing piece in this beautifully crafted collection, while crushed velvet and satin suit separates give this striking fashion lineup even more texture and shine. So if you're looking for a look with a heavy military influence and want to stay away from the traditional band jackets and camo prints offered by other labels, then get yourself some pieces with some extravagant fair from the new Alexis Mabille Fall/Winter 2012 collection.
