70s-Focused Luxury Capsules

Amanda Wakeley Fall 2018 Imagines a Concept of a 70s Rock Star Progeny

— February 23, 2018 — Fashion
The newly launches Amanda Wakeley Fall 2018 collection imagines a wardrobe of a 70s rock star progeny. She describes the creative process as a lush approach, filling the capsule with printed silks, mink gilets, and cashmere knits to recall the decade. There is a blend of both craft and luxury in the Amanda Wakeley Fall 2018 collection. Some pieces include a large fitting black coat with raffia woven details, cashmere sweater with fox sleeves, and chunky intarsia knits.

The aesthetics of the 70s were channeled through items such as the trench coat coated in a berry suede, a lilac-colored long coat with cocoa ribbon details, and hem dresses and skirts with printed silk drapes. Evening apparel was another focus, offering dresses in extravagant gold with embroidered rose and swirling patterns intended to imitate moth wings.
