Glove Trends: Autumn / Winter 07 - 08
Written by Tania Braukamper
Long, mid-length or short; leather, suede or wool; plain or studded, feathered or furred, fingerless or full. Gloves graced the catwalk in almost every possible way throughout the Autumn / Winter collections.
So how to wear them? Perhaps the most important lesson when it comes to glove trends this season is this: forget the boring old gloves and make a statement.
With clothing trends for Winter being largely on the safe side - with block colours, plain cuts and limited detail being the norm - accessories are the perfect way to jazz things up. Super-long gloves can be worn straight up the arm or slouched down. Bright colours can liven up an otherwise plain outfit, while beading, feathers or fur add a layer of feminine detail, particularly suited to evening affairs.

There aren't too many alpha-females out there and, though she might deny it, Tania Braukamper certainly exudes their qualities. A keen eye, a focused approach, and a wardrobe spanning three rooms have made her one of the savviest of dressers. But it's not all couture for Tania, earning her fashionista credentials she'll frequently be seen on the town in a one-off, vintage dress and a pair of Gucci heels.
She says: Vintage will never go out of style
We say: Does that include vintage 80s?
