  • Going to Extremes

    1 of 31

    By Shannan Rouss

    Warning: This Fashion Week wrap-up is not for the faint of heart. With overalls, semi-transparent trousers, bloated dresses, leather harnesses and more, these latest trends are anything but boring.

  • When in Rome...

    2 of 31

    Or Milan, as the case may be. At Versace, models marched the runway in gladiattos, a gladiator-sandal-stiletto combo.

  • Tough Enough

    3 of 31

    At Altuzarra, over-the-knee gladiattos toughened up the more conservative tweedy looks.

  • It's a Tie

    4 of 31

    For those with patience, these gladiator-style shoes (with a chunkier heel than the gladiattos) lace up the front. (The previous two shoes have zippers in back for easy undressing.)

  • Thigh's the Limit

    5 of 31

    Sheer details have been all the rage on the runway. In addition to peekaboo cutouts on dresses and tops, designers are now dabbling in semi-transparent trousers, as seen here at Emilio Pucci.

  • Coming Up Shorts

    6 of 31

    For ladies who like to show a little shin, there were these tibia-revealing trousers on the Gabriele Colangelo runway in Milan.

  • A Sheer Thing

    7 of 31

    At Temperley London, strategically placed sheer stripes upped the sexy factor on these swingy palazzo pants.

  • World Domination

    8 of 31

    Has the fashion world been swept up in the 50 Shades of Grey frenzy? At BCBG, leather harness-like details made black lace even racier.

  • Of Human Bondage

    9 of 31

    Designer Jason Wu combined naughty leather suspenders with a prim, ladylike dress.

  • Roped In

    10 of 31

    At the Osman show in London, a strappy leather bodice and neckline were both strong and sexy.

  • Over It?

    11 of 31

    The fashion world refuses to outgrow overalls, with new incarnations (like this colorful shorts version from House of Holland) showing up from season to season.

  • Something's Fishy

    12 of 31

    Inspired by fishermen, Kinder Aggugini, who worked for Versace and Calvin Klein before launching his own collection, included a pair of swordfish-print overalls in his show.

  • Holy Moly

    13 of 31

    At Moschino, pretty eyelet overalls called to mind Granny's special-occasion tablecloths.

  • Hold On

    14 of 31

    Clutches with safety straps (seen here at Gabriele Colangelo in Milan) could provide a second line of defense against potential purse snatchers.

  • In the Wrist

    15 of 31

    At Peter Som, a soft clutch sat comfortably at the wrist.

  • Gold Rush

    16 of 31

    Even with a safety strap, this roomy clutch from 3.1 Phillip Lim could get a little unwieldy once filled.

  • Vested Interest

    17 of 31

    Sleeves—who needs 'em? At Proenza Schouler leather vests went with the show's rockabilly vibe.

  • Bringing Flexy Back

    18 of 31

    Perfect for showing off your toned guns, the vests at 3.1 Phillip Lim had a relaxed and rugged feel.

  • Double Up

    19 of 31

    A double-breasted vest at Creatures of the Wind kept a pink skirt from being too sweet.

  • Rags to Riches?

    20 of 31

    The models at Marc by Marc Jacobs wore a hodge-podge of bright colors topped off with a fashion shmata. (Oy.)

  • That's a Wrap

    21 of 31

    If this trend (as seen at Max Mara) catches on, then you'll at least have an easy fix for bad hair days.

  • Bohemian Rhapsody

    22 of 31

    Italian designer Luisa Beccaria got into the gypsy spirit with off-the-shoulder tops and bold head wraps.

  • Shine On

    23 of 31

    Metallic fabrics aren't limited to shades of gold, silver and bronze. At Jonathan Saunders, a glistening fabric created a rainbow of shimmer.

  • Heavy Metal

    24 of 31

    The Burberry show included printed metallics and ladylike silhouettes.

  • Foiled Again

    25 of 31

    In Milan, Roccobarocco updated a black slip dress with a burst of metallic blue.

  • This & That

    26 of 31

    It's a sandal. No, it's a bootie. No, it's a sandootie. The hybrid shoe made an appearance at Jason Wu.

  • Toe the Line

    27 of 31

    A peep-toe, printed sandootie graced the Suno runway.

  • Buckle Up

    28 of 31

    At Derek Lam, models slithered down the runway in snakeskin sandooties that buckled in back.

  • Room to Grow

    29 of 31

    At Jil Sander, this roomy shirtdress puts the bag in baggy.

  • Big Idea

    30 of 31

    Oh, Marni. So much for black being slimming.

  • Fill 'Er Up

    31 of 31

    A balloon skirt at Nicole Farhi offered sizable pockets, ideal for stashing a small animal, a turkey sandwich, an inflatable raft or any other daily essentials.
