Vogue Fall lineup

Vogue has posted the new pattern lineup for fall here. Lots of eye candy. Surprisingly little unwearable stuff this time around. I found myself drawn to the ladylike offerings, nicely fitted, well-defined waist, no exaggerated silhouette.
These are my favorites:

V2988 -what's not to love? All five pieces are must-sew for this fall. If I make nothing else, I will make that jacket. And I have just the right wool herringbone in my fabric collection, it came in a Donna Karan bundle from Michael's Fabrics.





V2989 is another winner. The dress/top pattern will work great in a wool jersey. Possible multiples here. I like the lines of the jacket, with the nipped-in waist, peplum, and the soft collar. Interesting treatment on the skirt, though I'm not sure I'll try that.





V2983 shows a lovely jacket - that neckline is to-die-for. If I were still back in Florida, this would be my first fall project. Alas, in this cold Germany, I'm not sure I'd ever get to wear it. I could put it on Babette and look at it often.... hmmm....






V2984 has another interesting jacket in a silhouette similar to the V2989 above. Nipped-in waist, peplum, soft shawl collar.
