The Dolce & Gabbana show was named ‘Kings Angels', and the Italian house took the theme literally by debuting what might be the most covetable accessory of AW18 -- the crown. There were two versions on show on the catwalk -- a plush blue velvet design with gold hardware that was teamed with a jacquard suit and patchwork denim coat, and a wine-colored version that lent a dash of regality to an otherwise casual jacquard trouser and turtleneck sweater ensemble.

Never one to be overshadowed, designer Jeremy Scott also came up with his own attention-grabbing accessory for the Moschino show, in the form of subversive-looking black latex masks and studded leather masks that almost entirely covered the faces of the models. Leather caps were also a recurring feature throughout the presentation, as well as the occasional chin strap.
