Many designers are embracing a 60s aesthetic in their fall shows this year and Dior is taking the lead with a call for change. Drawing on the protest art of the 1960s and the movements that ruled the era, Maria Grazia Chiuri is creating a feminine uprising with her latest designs.

The 80s were alive and well at the 2018 RTW Versace show. With camel colored trenches, and plaid attire that would make Cher Horowitz proud. Belted waists and bright patterns made their way down the runway this season accompanied by natural hair texture, short cuts, and scarves galore.

The biggest movement seen at the Prada FW 2018 RTW show was diversity. It began with Anok Yai, a newly discovered Sudanese model, who began the show on a strong foot. Making her the first black model to lead the runway since Naomi Campbell. The fashion included many draped looks in juxtaposition with themselves. Mixing layers upon layers, puffers, tweeds and structured jackets with feminine feels of organza, sequins and bows. It was a social statement and the runway was one that evoked the feeling of night. Miuccia Prada said she wanted to showcase what it was like for women and how they navigate the night.
