Urban Couture Mash Ups

The Ostwald Helgason Fall 2013 Collection Mixes Upscale Street Style

— February 26, 2013 — Fashion
The Ostwald Hegalson Fall 2013 collection displayed its current preference for urban couture at this year's Milan Fashion Week. The label provided a series of metropolitan twists via baseball caps paired with prototypical upscale pieces, a choice that captured the eyes and minds of audience members.

These athletic caps came matched with Mary Jane strap stilettos, pocket squares and elegant prints. The latter choices are often reserved for exclusively luxe lines, ones that do away with youthful sporty motifs. The brand has nonetheless stepped outside of the usual here with high spirited these outfits. As the pieces are mixed together eclectically, shoppers can take individual items from each ensemble and use them to piece together equally diverse looks.
