Nicole Phelps, Director, Vogue RunwayMy pick from menswear is Raf Simons’s vest, trouser, and “I Heart NY” duct tape outfit. I love wearing pants to fancy black-tie events, so I’d swap out the chisel-toe shoes for high pointy pumps and try to score some extra duct tape to really cinch the waist.

Luke Leitch, Vogue.com Contributing EditorLuxe-normcore ensembles in all-camel were a feature from Berluti to Prada to Zegna and beyond. Ami came closest to how I’d imagine myself wearing it. The new Berluti cipher is a monied artist with a hobo soul and a yen for the sumptuous. Haider Ackermann’s debut here was a fine marriage of the man and his new house. Why was the duffle—a coat originally cobbled together for sailors to shrug into when going on deck—the outerwear piece of the season? Search me. Christopher Raeburn’s version made out of recycled Danish army blankets and felt camo patches was one of my favorites—along with Zegna’s double-faced extra-long coat in camel.

Virginia Smith, Vogue Fashion and Accessories Market DirectorThis look from Raf Simons perfectly sums up my feelings as of late—and I’m happy to wear my heart on my sleeve, or my sweater.

Sarah Mower, Vogue.com Chief CriticI loved this Martine Rose satin shirt, tie, and tiepin so much, I went and ordered them for myself, plus a burgundy jersey tailored jacket. She’s that good. As Grace Wales Bonner also remarked, “The tie’s having a Thing.” That Thing is also to do with the comeback of tailoring and people talking about corporate suits, as Demna Gvasalia did at Balenciaga. I was compelled, though, by the comeback of the wider pant—Kim Jones completely nailed the fluid trouser at Vuitton. This, as plain as it seems, looked the epitome of modern ease to me.
