Noria Morales — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 09:43:29 PST

There is one strong styling trend emerging from the runways at New York Fashion Week: lots and lots of layers. Designers like Helmut Lang, Rag and Bone, and Rebecca Taylor showed vests over jackets over sweaters over pants (or some combination, you get the picture), and one of the interesting styling combinations includes dresses over pants. What do you think - is it a trend you'll wear next season or is it best left on the runway? From left: Helmut Lang, Rag and Bone, Rebecca Taylor.

New York Fashion Week is fully underway, and one of the things we zero in on is outerwear. Whether it's a tailored peacoat or an exuberant fur, we're making a list of our favorites. The big trend to emerge thus far in outerwear is a big cozy blanket coat, as seen at Rag and Bone. When it comes to a designer whose entire outerwear line we would like to own, it has to be Altuzarra, who might have been looking to Morocco when he designed Fall 2012, but he didn't let go of his sleek, urbane silhouettes.
