Spring has sprung, so you know what that means in the Fashion world...  Fall Previews!!   What a great time to hit the stores and pick up great items for the summer, and reserve the hottest pieces that will be hitting the boutiques for Fall!

FERRAGAMO HIDDEN PLATFORM PYTHON PUMP W/ HIDDEN PLATFORM - $950.00The Ferragamo Fall collection is chock full of luxe, substantial looks that are the perfect additions to a well heeled wardrobe.    As Salvatore Ferragamo was the man who put design in designer shoes - of course the shoe collection is amazing!

Stand outs include these blue python hidden platforms.   At Ferragamo, it's all about the details, and the wooden heel on this pump adds texture and color that is sure to make this one of the hottest looks for Fall.   Also available in caramel!   The perfect shoe to take on any weekend getaway.   Rock it during the day with trousers or at night with the hottest dress.   Of course, skinny jeans are a no-brainer here.    CARAMEL PYTHON PUMP

Another super luxurious look are these hand stitched patchwork pumps.  HAND STITCHED PATCHWORK - AMETHYST / ROYAL / GRAY - $1,250.00 The top stitching is a true homage to the company archives.   Mr. Ferragamo first created the patchwork pump back in the 1920's.   For Fall 2010 we see a slight menswear influence with a sexy twist.   

Ferragamo's design team has really worked to create one message with this fall collection.   There is consistent styling across the accessory categories, making any of the handbags a perfect complement to every shoe is this huge collection.

Stand outs are the patchwork group for sure!   First take a look at the new Fiammetta patchwork.   The house unveiled this style for S/S 2010 and it was an instant hit in white leather, rafia, and python. PATCHWORK CALFSKIN FIAMMETTA IN RED/AMBER $1,830.00

For Fall, the more cerebral and bohemian combination of leathers in the patchwork leathers are so chic.   These are sure to be a must have for the crowd that appreciates a non-logo luxury bag.   Of course, Ferragamo is one of the houses that gets those women and men.  FIAMMETTA PATCHWORK- LEATHER GANCIO HANDLE The typical client is not head to toe logo, but one who appreciates quality and craftsmanship of a collection made entirely in Italy.

 

SPLURGE ALERT!

If you are looking to treat yourself to one serious accessory this year, look no further!  ALLIGATOR / CALFSKIN / SUEDE SOFIA - $5,500.00 The classic Sofia shape is realized in Alligator, Suede, and Calfskin for Fall!  Shades of Chocolate brown make this sophisticated and wearable.   This one will be in your wardrobe for life, and is one to give to your daughter one day!   TOP STITCHED DETAIL W/ BRUSHED HARDWARE At $5,500.00 it is a true luxury, but priced conservatively in the exotic market.
