Gucci, Miu Miu, Lacoste And More Are Having A Major Wes Anderson Moment – Sweatbands At The Ready!

What do the designers behind Gucci, Miu Miu and Lacoste have in common? Wes Anderson movie marathon nights… or so we’d imagine when looking to the runways of autumn/winter 2015. The film director’s meticulously arranged, retro-inspired, quirky visual feasts (no prop, colour or even collar is ever left to chance) have provided more than a few fashion moments for the new season.

The two leading fashion characters come courtesy of cult classic, The Royal Tenenbaums: Richie’s wildcard combination of tennis gear and tailoring has been adopted by both Lacoste and Bally, whilst over at Gucci you’d easily spy his coolest sibling, Margot, in old-fashioned nana coats flung nonchalantly over slip-of-a-thing dresses. Then there’s the sweet, ‘60s-tinged mini-dresses of Moonrise Kingdom’s leading girl Suzy that, tada!, have been made luxe and significantly more grown-up for Miu Miu’s modern mavens.

If this all sounds a bit theatrical, relax. The catwalk’s interpretation of Anderson’s dysfunctional but well-dressed cast is less about complicated costume design and more about styling – look to Gucci for the mix’n’match pointers: a Life Aquatic-style red beanie hat will go surprisingly well with Margot’s trench coat and nerdy brogues, see?
