Think of these as the 10 new and improved lessons for winter dressing—and you don't have to wait till next year to put them to good use.

4. Rachel Comey: Sheer With Velvet
The etherealness of Rachel Comey's gauzy blouse was just the right balance to the season's must-have textured velvet pants.

In complementary shades of purple, blue, and gray, these patterns form a clash that we like.

6. Jason Wu: Ladylike Low-Waisted Trousers
With the right proportions and skinny button-down, something as simple as low-waisted trousers are beyond ladylike.

7. Thakoon: Winter White Done Right
Using layers and varying degrees of wrapped and frothy fabric, Thakoon showed us how winter white can be practical and sophisticated all at the times.

8. Richard Chai LOVE: Sporty Sophisticate
High-top sneakers, slouchy sweats, and a shot of sparkle turn a cleverly layered look into a sport-chic slam-dunk.
