’70s nostalgia in cool-weather wear

-

THE FALL 2015 collection of popular Spanish brand (Sfera) features a sophistica­ted ’70s look and a nostalgic, romantic style with dramatic overtones.

With cooler weather ahead, distinct fabrics such as cord and velveteen and unique features add a bohemian touch to classic outwear pieces such as the sweater and jacket.

Denim makes an important appearance, seen in the fine-details coats and capes. The ’70s trend is expressed in a color palette that includes mustard, marsala, black and other earthy tones.

Urban and casual fashion trends come in coats, ponchos, ethnic jackets, fringes, leopard prints and knitwear.

There are heritage-inspired doublebrea­sted coats, newly reinvented long cardigans, modern updates of knit pullovers, capes that make dramatic entrances, elegant faux fur gilets and a statement suede kimono-inspired jacket.

Paired with versatile mix of fashionabl­e pieces from the latest Woman Collection, like the throwback ’70s widelegged or flared or modern classic skinny pants, romantic blouses, sheer shirts with bows and so much more, these latest cover-ups come mostly in subtle neutral tones and the deepest shades of wine red.

(Sfera), launched in Madrid in 2001, has become known for fun, dynamic, upto-the-minute fashions in a minimalist modern setting. The brand owned by Spanish retail giant El Corte Inglés has several product lines, ranging from innovative and daring to urban and formal.

In partnershi­p with SM, (Sfera) opened its first Asian store on Sept. 30, 2014. The brand also caters to the fashion needs of men and kids, providing stylish pieces embodying the Spanish style.

(Sfera) is at 2/F of SM Store Makati, its first store in Asia. Follow on Instagram @sferaph (#SferaPH) or on facebook: SFERA Philippine­s. Visit www.sfera.eu.
