Creating an exuberant look without sliding from classy to brassy can be tricky at this time of year. Too often, good sense goes out of the window in favour of a flounce. Pinpoint where your event lands on the scale — from casual after-work cocktails to red-carpet dinner — and dress appropriately. But don’t be afraid to embrace a seasonal trend. Sequins, this autumn, were big catwalk news (the trend is gathering momentum for spring, too) so a sprinkling of paillettes will look very au courant — just keep in mind that a simple silhouette works best. A softer option, yet equally alluring, are home furnishing-style fabrics; not as drab as they sound, once you try out the season’s brocades and jacquards in pretty wallpaper florals.
在如今這個時節，打造奢華行頭、同時避免轉雅爲俗是異常棘手的事。很多時候，良好的判斷力往往因爲脾氣失控而蕩然無存。所以諸位務必先明確活動的具體等級——是下班後的非正式雞尾酒會還是高規格晚宴——然後纔有針對性地確定穿著。但無需爲緊跟時尚潮流而擔心。今年秋冬這個時裝季，裝飾亮片的時裝盛行一時（它還在爲2016年的春季蓄勢待發）。因此，亮片時裝會是司空見慣的裝束——諸位請只需謹記：簡約款時裝效果最出彩。家居類面料裝（然而同樣讓人慾罷不能）是諸位另一類容易選擇的目標；一旦嘗試這個時裝季盛行的印有漂亮壁紙花卉圖案的織錦緞與提花面料，它們就不像聽起來那樣單調乏味。
