O is for Ocabini, Orange & Oriental

The Telegraph fashion column is running an A-Z of new season trends. We say O is for Ocabini, Orange and Oriental.

Orange is the colour: clutch, £250, Cacharel; Agatha, £820, Smythson; Bucket Bag, £355, MaxMara.

Oriental is hot: add a kimono jacket, mandarin collar, obi belt, or, like Louis Vuitton, a fan. See Ocabini's  Mandarin scarf, £130, in gorgeous chiffon cashmere. Our summer collection is due online in April, keep a lookout for our cashmere kimono-cut tops.

Gucci Gucci

Gucci's Autumn Winter collection at Milan Fashion Week was a heady mix of jewelled colours in shades of purple, peacock blue and rust, burgundy and emerald, turquoise, orange and fuschia.

The silhoutte is very much Seventies romance for next winter and all the while super hot glamorous, inspired by Faye Dunaway in 'The Eyes of Laura Mars', and the style of the flame-haired, British singer, Florence Welch, of Florence & The Machin.

The emphasis was high voltage - patent leather and snakeskin pencil skirts, chiffon gowns with huge flags of fabric whipping up behind each model, split to the waist showing off matching hotpants.

Or settle for the day look:  kimono-cut top and below the knee swirl of skirt. Finish off with a pair of leather boots, skinny belt, designer sunglasses and an Ocabini emerald chiffon-cashmere scarf.
