Trend alert: '60s mod

Designers can be a nostalgic bunch, and this season they're taking us back to the early '60s (the more conservative part of that decade). Matching coats and sleeveless dresses make a comeback, as do short-but-not-micro hemlines. Finish the look with knee-high boots and a box bag.
