18 October 2014 www.womanthismonth.com FASHION | AW14-15 Quilt Mania The art of quilting gets especially noticed during winters. The cushy texture can be found in a variation of fabrics, such as luxe wool anoraks and thin voile materials. The 3D aspect adds extra comfort and warmth to a quilted piece. Easily found in clothing items, the trend has extended its reach to accessories, such as structured clutches, hats and gloves. Although they scream winter, you may be able to stretch the use of your quilted handbag to the warmer season. The graphic shape is an easy way to add glam to your look without overdoing it. Jonathan Saunders and Moschino applied the classic quilt style in the pieces where it is usually found — jackets! Giles and Dior went a bit further. The former used it in trousers; the latter created a new pattern composition and applied it to dresses. Miu Miu Opening Ceremony Dior Giles Jonathan Saunders Moschino
