In creating his Fall showcase, Joseph Altuzarra went for unlikely combinations, pairing pieces that weren't necessarily connected to create a new take on this season's bohemian trend.

With mismatched styling saturating the style world, Joseph Altuzarra managed to reinvent the trend for Fall with his signature refined manner. Incorporating his famed tailoring and feminine air into the mix, Altuzarra presented a mash up of prints, textures and movement in his latest collection suited for the free-spirited women of the world. Flowing, microprinted silks boldly mixed with heavy shearling coats while shag-infused sweaters and seductive gypsy-inspired maxi's flowed down the runway to close the show.

Renowned member of the minimalism pack, Amy Smilovic took androgyny to new levels with her latest collection for Tibi, giving us a new sense of direction for Fall.

And not androgyny in the way everyone else is doing it either. The founder's take is less "borrowed from the boys" and more "gender fluid", or as Smilovic put it: "the way a woman wears a guy's jeans - a guy can wear a woman's, too." There's a style in the ease Smilovic has perfected at the helm of Tibi, one that doesn't rely on bold patterns and structure, but on simplicity and comfort. There's never a sense that the clothing is trying to hard, but at the same time there's nothing underrated about it.

This collection is for the person who doesn't need anything more than an oversized military coat and matching slouchy trousers to make a statement. The designer brought out her signature play on length and proportion, creating slouchy, oversized military suits, naval jackets and pinstripe suits that flowed down the runway. Languid silk slips and lace blouses, sans bras, layered under oversized blazers added sensuality to a predominantly male-influenced showcase. Carefully layered velvets, mohairs, furs and metallics all made an appearance in military greens, terracottas and oxbloods with touches of quartz, emerald green and blush.

Alexander Wang pulled out all the stops in creating a Fall showcase chock full of blatant juxtaposition.Perhaps being an industry darling has pushed Wang to his unorthodox design mantra, maybe it was that last etherial collection for Balenciaga. Either way, it's a contrast that manifested itself Saturday inside Saint Bartholomew's Church with a slew of punk-infused tweed and raunchy prints that set the tongues of front row A-listers wagging. Taking the trendy grunge look to the dark side by throwing in plenty of goth, Wang sent a storm of models down the runway adored in plenty of chains, mohair and cleverly-censored tops a la his Spring 2014 show.

Sift through the shock factor pieces to find standouts like a full and faux fur lined denim jacket, a not-so-subtly transparent argyle sweater and a new-wave checked and striped pink maxi.

Rebecca Minkoff took off West for her Fall showcase, designing a collection sure to catch the eyes of Coachella jet setters and Wild Wild West lovers alike.

Designing with the decidedly warmer, Gold Coast climate in mind (we can only assume given the stampede of tanks, cropped denim and short and sweet prairie dresses) Minkoff created a collection made for today's bohemian woman. Modern cowgirl touches appeared in saddle-brown suedes morphed into fringed jackets and culottes, looks that mingled with their lavender-hued miniskirt suit and moto jacket counterparts. The borrowed-from-the-boys pebbled black moto was the tough girl of the show, it's fringed cape partner coming in second. And of course the namesake bags; this time based in light brown, grey and black with tassel and stud accents to mirror the shows eclectic, free-loving vibe.
