For the Zimmermann Fall 2018 collection the muse is a youthfully adventurous Victorian era woman, living in oppressive surroundings but finds freedom and a chance of mischief in her horse and her riding.

This is her escape and her horse takes her to where she wants to go, to where fun and trouble can be found.

The designer titled her Fall collection Unbridled, referencing romantic, adventurous equestrians of the Victorian.  These sentiments took shape in soft pastel hues, lashings of lace and equestrian-esque pieces like leather jodhpurs. For every bow or pouf shoulder on a breezy floral print dress, there was a simple, buttery leather trouser. For every girly mini, there was a beautifully clean and minimal Italian jersey-knit maxi. The outerwear included menswear-inspired bomber jackets and shearling coats.

Themes of the American West seeped into Zimmermann’s latest collection, predominantly visible in the studded cowboy boots, belted saddle pouches and wide-brim black hats tied around some of the shoulders.

The Zimmermann looks were best with a womanly and grown-up sensibility to flirty garments, designed with sleekness and wearability in mind.
