The Northern Irish designer J.W. Anderson, who’s always making waves in the fashion world, struck magic again Saturday with an out-there fall collection.

Only Jonathan Anderson, with his edacity for disjointed narratives and contemporary designs, could take a futuristic riff on the ’60s without seeming redundant. An ode to two-piece party dressing, the collection offered satin track tops tucked into mod skirts with curving, overlapped layers, plus neoprene pencil skirts with stiff, orbiting hemlines reminiscent of Pierre Cardin’s couture days. And despite the understandably awkward (and equally charming) pieces, quilted, rose-emblazoned leather tops and hyper-ruffled skirts held promise for street statement wear.

Lancaster House was a fitting location for Simone Rocha’s collection that channeled the ethereal and the eerie at once.
Rocha does romantic in a rough-around-the-edges variety, something showcased Saturday by fraying tweed coat-dresses accented with a sensual rip at the hip or thigh so as not to seem too matronly. With a nod to Victorian suiting and detailing, the designs were dreamy and full of fluidity. Floaty gauzes stole the show in abundant forms, embroidered with metallic blooms and graphic florals while sitting atop slouchy plaid suits or layered heavily in nudes, lipstick reds and soft lavenders.
