The Haute Couture Autumn/Winter 2011/12 shows saw a few key trends emerge for the coming season. Elaborate fabrics and embellishments are always forefront however key accessories and colour trends burst onto the scene. This season the standout colours, thanks to Giambattista Valli and Valentino, were the richest of reds and vibrant peach. Gowns with capes, drapes and billowing hems stood out like sore thumbs, red is the hottest of commidities right now. Mixed with a palette of stark white and the jet black it's a colour combination worthy of a fabulous party. Bridal fashion will most definitley take a cue from the autumn/winter's Haute Couture Collections. Here's hoping a feminine cape in the most gorgeous of laces makes a trip down the isle.
