4 surprise labels; Prove you're a risk-taker by wearing unexpected designers.(Brief Article)
While there's no shortage of marquee names helping you make the morning commute in style, there's now an ever-greater desire to experiment with less-obvious or more cutting-edge labels. From coast to coast, women are taking serious lunches in Rick Owens, chairing committee meetings in Balenciaga, and going daringly nine-to-five in Tuleh camo-print full skirts. "Fashion," says Bonnie Todman (39, nutrition-company VP, Los Angeles), "can bring so much life and freshness to the corporate atmosphere."
Courtney Cochran (left) generally falls back on old standards like a Calvin Klein button-down with a Dolce & Gabbana pencil skirt, but recently has developed a yen for more whimsical delights. "Consuelo Castiglioni at Marni used a lot of gray in her current collection, which is great for work," says Cochran. "I'd like to try incorporating Marni's shorter jacket or gathered tulip skirt into my look."
