In recent years we’ve seen the rise of the female dandy and the return of double breasted suits for gents. So what does it all evolve in to for women’s Fall 2010′s fashion trends? The neo double breasted blazer, waistcoat and jacket.

So what’s the difference between double breasted pieces and those of the neo double breasted variety? The cut. Think minimalism taken to the nth degree. Nothing fancy, nothing showy, just a cut so architectural it can’t help but be striking.

If you do want to introduce some texture or pattern, stick with a simple two-button cut – like Rag & Bone‘s Glen Urquhart waistcoat below.

Late one Oxford night Daniel P Dykes set about creating a fashion publication that would go someway to being an arbiter on fashion as it appeals to the emerging power generations: those who don't remember a world without the Internet and for whom work plays second fiddle to pleasure. And so Fashionising.com was born as a publication for those who were focussed not just on fashion's trends, but on society's too, and how those trends could all go to heighten the art of living. Hence, Daniel sees a future where, for those young at heart, both fashion and style are grounded in traditional quality, but with a youthful, sensualised edge. Daniel is Fashionising.com's Editor in Chief and Chairman.
