Max Mara might win for “store I’d most like to be locked inside with a boatload of cash.” Let me tell you one of the reasons why: sure, these pieces might be walking down the Milan runways, but I feel like I could wear them just as easily as the models in the photos. The collection, which was very heavy on (beautifully done) outerwear, predominately featured neutral shades of white, black, gray, and camel. I liked the clean cuts as well – they were classic but still modern.
There were some plaids scattered throughout the collection. I liked this dress; it’s a great cold-weather take on a simple strapless dress.
Winter white at its finest. How perfect is the fit on that jacket?
I love the cable-knit on this piece.
Here’s plaid again, this time in a roomy coat. The fringe along the edge gives it a little something extra.
