In the fall fashion season there were the headgear, winged headdresses, netted, caged faces, big, brooding fedoras, hoods, veils and riding helmets.
Stylists have been indicating an era of covered-up, modest dress since at least last fall.
The trend marks a new clear-headedness which might actually take hold.
Scanty tops have already lengthened and are better to balance with skinny jeans.
Style skirt suits are back to a time of feminine modesty and composure.
Another significant change on the style scene is shape shifting.
The most dramatic theme of the season is a brooding darkness with black, grey, khaki or purple.
This season is very much about covering up from head to toe, as it's all about shape, proportion and understated luxury as it's a very forgiving season.
Several designers seemed to have designer touch of avian fever since it's commonplace for runway models to wear unusual headgear.
This season, the coverings included a golden veil, fearsome studded black masks, oversized knitted turbans, black and gold face cages, witch hats, knitted full head coverings and hide-and-seek hoods.
Riding helmets also appeared and they're now cropping up in fashion spreads everywhere.
