  6. 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! :)

  11. 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!

  12. 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!

    ReplyDelete
  23. 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!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  26. 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!

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

    ReplyDelete
  31. 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.

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  34. Love funnel collars....pop that top!

    ;)

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

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

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

    ReplyDelete
  43. 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 :)
