Trends: Hoodwinked

Narcisco Rodriguez Fall 2009, Central St Martins Fall 2009, Nina Ricci Fall 2009

Those designers pulled the wool over our eyes! Quite literally, hats at both Narcisco Rodriguez and Nina Ricci came right down to almost the tip of your nose. Don't worry though, those models could still see, via holes in the style of Dumb Donald from Fat Albert at Narcisco Rodriguez and the Central St Martins grads. Of all these looks I prefer Olivier Theyskens take at Nina Ricci, it looks sleeker and more spy like with a mesh overlay hiding the eyes. If three's a trend, here we have it! Although I don't forsee this one going anywhere far beyond the runway.
