The new collection showcases lots of sequins, studs, ruffles, twists and lace. The collection is well suited to take one from a regular day to a party in the evening in the same attire!

Jewel colours predominate, such as cerise, cobalt blue and purple. Belts, bags and shoes come in patent leather, and there are lots of details in buttons, studs and sequins.
- Cocooning: This look is all about wrapping up warm and staying cosy as the weather gets colder.There’s lots of texture, with different kinds of knit all worn together with soft colors like grey, cream, silver, purple and beige.
- Per Una: With lots of embellishment, texture and color, Per Una this season emphasizes on more contemporary and grown-up fashion. The body conscious look that is so imperative this season is reflected in Per Una, with ruching and pleats that skim the body without being too tight or revealing.
