Plaid's relationship to the runway has dabbled in heritage tartans, streetwise grunge and school girl dalliances. Fall 2013 saw plaid in a less referential light, with novel shopping bag inspired prints at CĂ©line, a colorful check at Stella McCartney and black-and-white ruffled herringbone at Commes de Garcons.

 Dries Van Noten, Frida Giannini's Gucci and Proenza Schouler are just a few of those who turned to the feather for Fall, embracing the contrast of airiness with volume in plumes of every color. From vibrant cherry red to jewel toned ombre and moody black and white, consider it a more than bearable lightness of being.

For all of the pared down minimalism exhibited on the runways, the season still saw fit to pay homage to the magpie. On swirling boho patterns at Givenchy, punk-rock florals at Tom Ford and '40s-inspired (with a dose of film noir) at Prada, sparkling embellishment was king.
