Fall collections tend to be more heavy and somber, but Twinkle by Wenlan provided a welcome bit of respite from the winter gloom with show of pieces that were simply very playful and pretty.  There were plenty of lovely flowy dresses featuring a woodland motif that you can wear with ease to brighten up the darkest of days.  The designer, whose strength has been with graphic designs, also translated her signature sense of geometry into chunky knits and jewelry.

Some of the strongest looks were a brownish gray hooded jacket for a ramble through the forest, a clear cubic necklace, and a single-sleeved pink and maroon dress.
