Andrea's It List: I curated the Ultimate Capsule for Fashion Month

Fashion month is in full swing so this week's column is dedicated to the capsule of pieces I've built to get me through a busy few weeks of runway shows, events and meetings. I need a handful of strong statement looks combined with reliable (and most of all comfortable) basics that will take me from breakfast meetings to a packed day of shows and on to late-night events or dinners.

My fail-safe items are those I can wear year after year - a bold leather jacket and skirt set, knee-high boots and a versatile ‘wear with anything’ black dress. Here are a few pieces I’ve invested in this year and a few already in my capsule from fashion weeks past.
