Versace A/W 2015

Mood board: Macho men in mannish overcoats and thick sole shoes dabbled in a few cross-dressing tendencies at Versace. Case in point? The elongated cardigan sweaters that looked like knit tube skirts over leggings.
Best in show: Cool outerwear like chinchilla-lined knitted sweaters or Ikat-esque printed coats that brought these boys back to the land of manhood.
Finishing touches: Borrowing right from the girls, Versace’s man bags were covered in fluffy Mongolian fur or compressed into clutches, while briefcases were shaped like women's handbags.
