No more wide-brimmed straw hats next season, or at least that’s what the Loewe Spring 2010 show is telling us. Along with models clad in leather—everything from buttery shifts to haute red (or should I say red haute?) trench coats—plastic visors, a la the poker games of the 80s, made appearances.
Also included were cutesy frocks, leather caps, rope belts, and ultra-round retro shades. And let’s not forget the orange bra paired with a paper-bag leather skirt.
