Large Gucci Gold HandbagUltra Large Bronze bag by Gucci

 And for fashion’s big extras: Hats are hot, with the favorite — the fedora — shown in a sportier version with a knitted crown. Check out pouchy Vermeer-inspired wool berets (from Louis Vuitton). And embrace hoods, especially fur trimmed or in knit attached to nylon.

 Gloves: You’ll see bold, padded, elbow-length styles in a fistful of materials, from leather and suede to shear-ling and crocodile.

Belts: They are mannish and often studded. If deep-cinched corset shapes in patent leather or metal sound seductive, they look more like medieval torture.

 Bags: Newest is the soft and squishy leather envelope, which folds under the arm. But there are also stellar versions of the ultra-large bag in bronze leather, fur, and knit as well as Gucci’s how-haute-can-you-go duffel bag.

 Tights: This must-have accessory was turned out in ribbed knits, jewel colors, and graphic patterns. Knee-high socks offer an alternative.
