The hustle, bustle and hysteria of the Autumn/Winter 2009 collections has been and gone - hitting each and every fashion captial like a whirlwind - but the excitement still hasn't subsided.

There were surprises in NYC, (Marc Jacobs showed not just on time, but actually a few minutes early) gasps of delight in London, (Central St. Martins provided more than a few names to watch) accessories galore in Milan, (Missoni made us want to pile on the scarves) and Paris... well Paris brought us chic with a captial C.

In this section we bring together the stand-out shows, the trends and give you a heads up on what you should be wearing when September brings on the chill.
