If Looks Could Kill

Glitz and glam is back. After last autumn’s neutral-toned ensembles, this season’s embellished necklines and bedazzled pieces are primping you for the sparkling winter season to come. Canadian designer Franco Mirabelli’s fall collection sparkles and shimmers just a little brighter, drawing in an audience ready for precisely contoured suiting and textured solids paired with extravagant costume jewelry. Keep an eye out for a classic-cut peacoat, asymmetrical lines and fun fur textures that Mirabelli blends with classy contemporary pieces. The simple solids matched with eye-catching accessories will have you all polished up for a day at the office or a night out at a hot spot.
