Fall fashion plates herald waist emphasis in men’s coats
Advanced proofs of fall fashion plates show coats with a distinct waistline and a flare on long-tailed coats. Light colored plaids dominate fall and winter wardrobes with warm tones like deep red and maroon. The auto overgarment remains loose at the neck while trousers stay similar to last year and waistcoats peek between lapels. Dark grays and black blues rise for evening coats as walking coats trend close to the form for business use.
