Fashion stress relief: textured pieces for everyday wardrobe

Soft accessories and footwear made from faux fur or bouclé have transitioned from fleeting trends to essential staples of the autumn-winter season. These items keep you warm during colder months and positively impact your emotional well-being. Their pleasant-to-touch textures help alleviate tension and reduce stress.

Fluffy footwear has captivated fashion lovers for years, thanks to brands like Jil Sander, Miu Miu, and Balenciaga. This season, the spotlight isn’t just on cozy ballet flats and mules but also on heeled pumps. Ferragamo, Versace, MSGM, Carven, and Tod’s collections demonstrate how faux fur and bouclé textures can seamlessly blend into evening and everyday outfits – the key rule to reserve these shoes for dry weather.

Another standout trend is footwear and accessories featuring feathers or fringe. These playful elements add a touch of whimsy and festive flair, making them ideal for the holiday season.

Anthony Vaccarello’s collections highlight cropped, oversized faux fur coats. These pieces not only provide warmth but also evoke a sense of calm and confidence, serving as a reminder of the importance of nurturing both your external appearance and internal well-being. Contact with soft materials has been shown to boost mood and reduce anxiety levels.
