Trends: Calvin Klein Platinum - for strong women; Jimmy Choo shades

Soft power Girly girls avert your eyes. The latest Calvin Klein Platinum range is a no-nonsense collection of structured silhouettes and downto- earth tones. For a fierce look with a little drama thrown in, there’s the croc-embossed leather vest (HK$5,990), interlock dress in black (HK$2,990) and snakeskin skirt (HK$4,990; all above right). The bonded laser-cut dress (HK$4,990), pleated skirt (HK$2,490) and interlock black top (HK$1,990; all above centre) ooze feminine strength. The black coat (HK$6,990) and black-and-white viscose dress (HK$2,990) with interlock skirt (HK$1,990; all above left) make up the perfect day-to-night ensemble. Calvin Klein Platinum is available at 35 Queen’s Road Central.

Penang panache What is it about the Malaysian island of Penang that lends itself to creative excellence? Jimmy Choo was born there, as was Rupert Sanderson, whose latest collection features sophisticated shades of berry, amber and gold. Key picks include the Little Gem nude mesh heel (right; HK$12,800), the Ralph with fox fur and buckles (above left; HK$7,980) and the Romany flat with monk-strap (above right; HK$6,580). Rupert Sanderson is in The Landmark, Central.

Armed and dangerous If a sworn enemy has been “throwing shade” at you, then show them some attitude in return with a pair of Jimmy Choo sunglasses. We’re loving the Nuria in animal print (below left; HK$2,140), the bejewelled Megan (bottom; HK$3,530) and the butterfly-shaped, lilac-hued Cindy (below right; HK$3,040). Jimmy Choo is in Harbour City, Tsim Sha Tsui.
