What's In & Out for Fall (4)

In: Shoulder Treatments

"Anything that accents the shoulders this season is hot,” says Michael O’Connor. “Whether it’s the sexy exposed shoulder of evening gowns or the padded military shoulders from recent runways, shoulders are in your face.”

“The great thing about accented shoulders,” O’Connor points out, “is the way one-shoulder dresses add height and padded shoulders narrow the waist.”

In: Thigh-High Boots

Over-the-knee boots and high platform shoes will be in, says Kevin Christiana. "[Both] are so sexy,” he points out. “They accentuate women's legs and elongate any size—I am a huge fan of both and hope that this is a trend [that’s going] to stay."

Still In: Highlights and Lowlights

“This fall, cool brunettes [will] dictate color fashion this season. It’s time to come off the beach, dress up, and get out on the town,” says Anthony Liguori, resident color specialist at Salon Luba. “Hair color changes just as fashion. Stylists can move blondes through the seasons with highlights and lowlights and other hair colors should adapt to the seasons, as well.”
