Anna October envisioned one of her stunning slip dresses—a showstopper with sheer diamond-shaped panels delicately embroidered with floral beads—making its way down the red carpet. Similar embellished details adorned the skirt’s godets. Now that the designer has partnered with a Los Angeles PR agency, her wish (and every paparazzo’s dream) is more likely to come true.

Her bias-cut dresses always carry a hint of old Hollywood allure. Speaking from Kyiv, October highlighted a pale pink dress with diamond-shaped panels and shirring details as a standout. A dramatic black marabou feather topper was designed with Hollywood in mind, setting the tone for her holiday collection. She drew inspiration from the “cold glamour” of Michelle Pfeiffer’s look in Scarface and the icy elegance of the Snow Queen.

This theme echoed in hand-blown tear pendants dangling from chokers and intricate mesh overlays. Deep burgundy accents mirrored “a drop of blood on the ice,” while winter whites dominated the lineup. A standout was an off-the-shoulder dress pieced together from leftover fabrics—Japanese crinkled satin, Italian jacquard, and cotton viscose—alongside adjustable drawstring sweaters. “I wanted this collection to shift from cute and girly to something colder, more distant—winter as a mood,” she explained.

October is also determined to make her tailored suits as iconic as her dresses. Though she’s dabbled in separates before, this time feels intentional. A royal blue pantsuit featured a corset-structured jacket with hook-and-eye sleeve closures. Similar hardware ran down the back of an evening trench, wearable open or closed. Lingerie-inspired details appeared in pleated pants with bra-strap waistlines, paired with a slit-back jacket tied with a bow. “You can open it to reveal the neck and back—because kisses on the back are always nice,” she said.

Consider this collection sealed with a kiss.
