I love these "funnel" pieces. All of 'em!

Style Justice said...

Very chic style, I like it in a jacket/sweater better versus a dress

Tights Lover said...

I really like the funnel collar style.

All excellent finds!

erika sorocco said...

Congratulations Hanako66!

Love the Missoni Lavanda Metallic Dress - the neckline reminds me slightly of a cowl, a look that I'm totally loving at the moment! :)

Mom Fashion World said...

Haute World said...

These are fab! I have a funnel collar winter jacket, but I'd love to get a dress or knit-top with a funnel collar as well. The Byblos one is so stylish! I've also seen funnel collars being sold as seperate pieces. Beautiful selection as always! Hope you had a fantastic weekend!

Denisa L said...

I need to get one:)

Gia said...

So good for the next coming cold winter:)
I love volumes and heavy textures, though I am small and I don't look that great in those kind of clothes!

Besos,
Gia!

That Martin Grant collection was simply gorgeous, I loved most pieces including that coat. Also really like the pink J Crew cutie. xxx

Sierra said...

Oh all of these coats look so lovely, especially since I am cold right now!

Taylor Sterling said...

So a couple things:
1. I love the new header. So sexy!
2. I thought this wholw time I was following you and then realized you never came up on my dashboard! Now I am!
3. greta choices. I love the more wearable versions!!

Sam said...

I love the fluffy coat third to last!...and the rusty orange velvet coat a bit further up - but the Benettons are the best!! Awesome stuff CC!

Love the Preen coat. Hope you enjoyed your weekend. Oh and thanks for the shout out !! :)

Vanessa @ See Vanessa Craft said...

Junya Watanabe scares me!
kisses

Intrinsically Florrie said...

Ah the Blugirl is so chic. I'd love to wear it, very ladylike.
It's not what I normally go for, but I'm also feeling drawn to the 'Preen Line laced funnel coat'. And it's not even floral!

Make Do Style said...

I love a funnel neck, I just got a dress from Zara with one and it is fab.

BonBon Rose Girls Kristin said...

As usual, Stella's got my number!

LenoreNeverM♡re said...

Love this look darling!
A.F. Vandevorst HUGE-HUGE LOVE!!!

Fab week CC ~xo*

Averill said...

Love a funnel collar for winter (and so much more flattering than a turtleneck).

M said...

I'm sitting here freezing - these pictures are all lovely! I must dig through my closet to fund some faux fur to bundle up with until my landlord realizes it's mid-fall and turns up the heat.

Great image selection as usual, xoxox.

Miss Cavendish said...

My winter puffer has a funnel neck, which I love. Cowls, however, make me cower--not my taste!

Jackie said...

Perfect spot for your circle scarf to sit in... nicely snug around your neck! What a warm thought!

Hunters Glory said...

Love funnel collars....pop that top!

;)

Maria Confer said...

Amazing new header!!

I love funnel necks, they frame the face so well.

I love all the funnel options! So many! Particularly in love with the Stell McCartney Tufted Coat... yummm

Unknown said...

That neckline reminds of something from Jackie O era. Even Lilly Pulitzer came out with a dress with that funnel neckline.

CC, I am looking into that James Perse puff coat. : )

Congrats to the winner! I love your new header, too! I love a strong collar, it adds such a great shape to an outfit. Though, I must admit I didn't like how the ones on the runway obstructed the models' beautiful faces! But hey runway is supposed to be wearable art... I am sure the designer tones it down for the rack :)

jess said...

I love the McQueen look.

I love funnel collars because I get claustrophobic in turtlenecks and I love the look of these.

Amelia said...

I would love a funnel-necked coat :)

HiFashion said...
