The season’s most lustworthy pieces.

Basic Training

Thought you’d seen the last of military fashion in the late ’90s? Think again. In keeping with this fall’s warrior-woman theme, designers have been looking to the uniforms of the armed forces for inspiration. Unlike the camo couture of the past, however, these styles are streamlined and sophisticated. Some of the best are Napoleonic jackets and peacoats adorned with epaulets, waist cinching, and golden embellishments.
