Style Report: Evening Glamour

One of the hottest looks for fall mimics the sophisticated and feminine style from one of my favorite eras, the 1950s. Simple yet chic, this belowthe- knee skirt by Halston Heritage is bold but pairs with a soft, flowing satin body for a stunning combination. Roll your sleeves a little to show off these gorgeous leather gloves by Carolina Amato. A vintage alligator-skin handbag is the perfect addition to the outfit. The sparking Lionette necklace adds just enough flash to finish off the outfit without being too gaudy. 1718 Walnut St.; knitwitonline.com

This season’s clothing will demand nights on the town. Jewel tones are fall’s new neutral; in cocktail and daywear, think garnet over khaki, sapphire over navy and emerald over black. Up the texture quotient with velvet, the simplest way to add serious chic to your wardrobe. A final note on shape: Widen your horizons with a ’70s-inspired evening pant and tunic, updated to fit and flatter. 1706 Locust St.; adressephiladelphia.com

Your cocktail attire should be “lady chic:” a look that is deliberate and polished, yet very present-day. Dresses are still in, but opt for a saturated shade of Bordeaux or be timeless in a tuxedo jacket and wide leg pant. Pair subtle trims and statement toppers with a fur capelet and a handheld bag in a deep exotic skin. Finish off the look with bold gold accessories—a fashion investment you can bank on—and a pair of black and gold pumps, the ultimate “lady chic” shoe. King of Prussia Mall; neimanmarcus.com
