Oculus, carpal, and cranium sound like the last words you heard before dozing off in middle-school bio, right? Well, they're back. But this time, it's as part of some of this season's least boring fashion. Anatomy—hands, lips, eyes, noses, and everything in-between—informs some of our favorite fall collections, from the likes of Kenzo, Opening Ceremony, Raf Simons, and Venessa Arizaga.
In a time when Body Worlds exhibits are popping up in different cities and #freethenipple campaigns have taken over social media, the human body is more exposed—and relevant—than ever. This season, Opening Ceremony looked to Antwerp, Belgium and the significance of the human hand in the city's name to create a collection full of floating digits and texturized fingerprint motifs. It's a scientific fact that the human hand is made up of 27 bones, but it's also a fashion fact that we wish there were 27 different color variations of the OC Cube Hand Crewneck Sweater. The hand also makes an appearance in Raf Simons/Sterling Ruby's collection, in the form of ornately-manicured fingers adorning sweatshirts.
Moving upwards in our anatomy lesson, the Venessa Arizaga Death In The Tropics Necklace features a skull crafted from antique gold. The Cheero Danboard Power Plus charger, meanwhile, comes complete with a printed face in a wide range of colors. Feeling more risqué? You can bare it all, gluteus maximus included, with the Delfina Delettrez Front/Back cufflinks, the perfect cheeky touch for any button-down.
