Psst. Another one of my seasonal reports is going up on Fashion Snoops this week on Fall 11 runway details. But being that you’re a loyal reader, you probably already know what’s going on. I can’t give everything away – check the site for over 20 trends – but here are my favorite 5 details of the season.

EMBELLISHMENT. You first saw it here and who will ever forget those fish scales!

FRINGE. Count the ways from the start, through yarn fringe and the red carpet.

PIECED CONSTRUCTION. Only the biggest detail of the season. Follow this trend from when it first struck New York, then London, then FUR SLEEVES, Balenciaga and finally two-toned pants at Céline.

SHOULDER ACTION. Remember the round-about? And Stella’s egg shape, all fair game for outerwear.

SLITSVILLE. Your answer to newness for all those maxi silhouettes and pencil skirts.
