“This bright, bold hue is just warming up. Red has been a key color trend all fall for clothing, and heading into winter and spring, a designer handbag in red packs a punch. We’re excited about boxy bags in all shades of this power color.
Fashion flats are here to stay. A festive Mary Jane flat is the perfect holiday heel alternative—it adds an element of charm to any look without sacrificing comfort. Opt for sleek patent leather from Larroudé, simple satin from Sandy Liang, or all-over crystals from Miu Miu; there is something for everyone with this style.
Phoebe Philo’s collection debut just ushered in a new era of the supersized tote. A chic carry-all tote is a great wardrobe investment piece because it’s the ultimate marriage of practicality and aesthetic appeal.

“A pop of red as an accent color to one of winter’s monochromatic black, gray or cream looks adds a little lift to the winter doldrums. I love a red shoe with a camel coat or a red bag with a head to toe black ensemble.
I love to pair boots with skirts and dresses—it elongates the leg and gives you a little lift. Toteme’s croc-embossed boot, Proenza Schouler s all-white boot and Staud’s Wally boot are super chic for winter.
The shoulder bag is a great carry-all for everyday. I love the soft supple leather shoulder bag from Khaite and Loewe’s elongated east west Paseo bag with the gold chain – both perfect to wear with winter coats.
Flats continue to be trending on and off the runways for fall and spring. From round toe ballerina flats, pointed toes, clean skimmers and embellished mesh flats, the flat is back and here to stay Some of the season’s favorites include Alaïa, Khaite, The Row and Staud.” —Roopal Patel, SVP

“Everyone raves about The Row’s Margaux tote and for good reason. It is spacious enough to fit all your day-to-day essentials, while also allowing you to still look effortlessly chic. This multi-use bag is a constant in my winter work wardrobe.
We recently launched new belt brand, Déhanche on site that I’m currently loving with everything. It’s clean, but cool with a distinct design.
Métier makes the ultimate bag for traveling. Its practical pouches and compartments are perfect for staying organized.

“Following seasons of mini and micro bags leading the charge, oversized bags are staging a return. An XXL bag completely transforms the silhouette and feels modern and relaxed, especially in soft, rich suedes. Warm brown tones are a key color for the season from brands such as Bottega Veneta, Khaite, The Row, Toteme and new brand to Matches, Reformation.
Sleek, minimal ankle boots are a key silhouette for the season. They are super versatile and can take you straight from the office to your evening plans. Khaite’s Nevada has been one of our best-selling styles alongside Aeyde and Toteme.
It has been refreshing to see brands experiment with different fabrications this season. The use of pony hair is something we haven’t seen in footwear for some time, from adidas x Wales Bonner’s sneakers (which sold out instantly) to Le Monde Beryl’s leopard print Mary Janes. Mesh has also been trending and will continue through SS24, although it sometimes appears as more suitable for warmer weather it works really hard in your wardrobe and is a stylish evening option to pair with luxe tailoring.” —Cassie Smart, head of womenswear

- XXL Bags: Reformation Vittoria oversized shoulder bag, $732
- Super Sleek Boots: Aeyde Allegra ankle boots, $414
- Playful Textures: Le Monde Beryl pony-hair flats, $448

“In footwear, texture is key this season. Mesh best sellers from Alaia, Khaite and Saint Laurent add interest and dimension to any look.
If you haven’t done so already, it’s time to put your mini bags into retirement—oversized is here to stay. The XL shoulder bag brings instant modernity; Saint Laurent’s Jamie and the Large Hop from Bottega feel sophisticated and dare we say, practical?
Nods to vintage silhouettes continue to peak our need for nostalgia. Gucci’s archival Horsebit Chain and Slim Horsebit shoulder bags are more relevant than ever. Mid- and low-heel slingbacks are back from Miu Miu and Valentino and oversized sunglasses from Hoorsenbuhs feel perfectly retro. If you’re searching for something a bit more refined that still delivers a dose of vintage sophistication, Saint Laurent’s new kiss lock closure Le Anne Maries houlder bag is text book elegance.” —Courtney Grant, VP buying + merchandising
“In fine jewelry this winter, we are seeing a lot of single statement styles. From strong cuffs to earrings that you can’t miss, this winter it’s all about the standout hero pieces.
When it comes to the holidays, we love some sparkle and shine. Nobody does an earring quite like Melissa Kaye and the Aria Triple Y earrings are a favorite. The Hoorsenbuhs phantom cuff combines strength and femininity. It’s gorgeous against the skin and also stands out when worn over a sleeve.
Don’t underestimate the power of the pinky. This Tesoro pinky ring from Renvi is a go-to. With a beautiful peridot center stone and heart motif, it’s a definite eye catcher.
This season, pile on the power pieces.” —Alex Lippin, SVP jewelry
