    a style dont. But the 80s-retro

    mullet skirtshort in the ront

    and long in the backhas be-

    come a major style do. Born on

    the Alexander McQueen runwayslast year, mullet skirts were the toast o

    Fashion Week last month. Now showing

    up at mass retailers like Zara and Asos,

    the silhouette is undeniably versatile.

    Stylistas hit the petal on theirlooks, mixing winter blooms into

    suits, tops and skirts. And the

    look thats coming up roses this

    season: oral pants. I love wear-

    ing orals, says Canadian writer

    Niki Blasina (let) in an Asos

    oral pantsuit. Even though I

    look like Hillary Clinton on hal-

    lucinogens, she jokes. H&M, Jil

    Sander and J.Crew are all stock-

    ing botanic trousers, so get ready to

    take a walk in a garden this spring.

    Sporty SpiceThis season, Fashion Week-ers earned their

    varsity letters, turning up in baseball caps,

    letterman jackets and hightop sneakers with

    hidden wedges. I like mixing up the sporty

    with tailored sharp pieces, says Ramya Gian-

    gola (right), who runs luxury ashion consult-

    ing company Gogoluxe. That juxtapositionis key. With Big Apple sports teams scoring

    big lately, the timing or the haute uniorm

    look couldnt be better.

    Skinny is out!

    Voluminous wide-leg

    pants, so big theycould masquerade

    as skirts, are the

    trousers o choice

    this season. I wear

    a size 2, but these are

    a 12, admits writer

    Maria DeNardo, 27

    (bottom let). I had

    them tailored so they

    would ft perectly,

    she adds. Handbagdesigner Emily

    Gellis (right) teamed

    owing Zara pants

    with a tweed blazer.

    Its always good to

    have a chic outft and

    be comortable at

    the same time, says

    Gellis, 25. And they

    hide everything.

    Go bold or go home is KatherineBruss philosophy in stripes andneon (let), while MTV stylistAlana Kelen ( below) says, Neon

    brings me back to the 80s.

    Bold BagsThe neon satchel was the bag o choice or

    a clutch o top editors during Septembersshows, but by February the colorul pops had

    prolierated. I came in September and saw a girl

    who had one, says Chicago Sun Times editor

    Meg Moore (let), pointing to her hot pink

    Cambridge satchel. I ordered it right ater. Most

    chose to pair the boldly hued purses with all-

    black ensembles, but not Katherine Bruss (above

    center), who owns a boutique in Hamburg. She

    proudly showed o an orange Pucci bag with a

    striped ur rom The Row. I always like to mix

    lots o colors. It looks resh, she says.

    Ive never had oneitem that garners suchattention, says MegMoore (let).
