"Modern doesn't mean plain or boring," says trend forecaster and design curator Li Edelkoort. "The drama comes from cut, construction, and depth of color." This silk shell is not only meticulously draped and richly pigmented; it's made to move—a signature concern of modernist fashion.

Shell, Jil Sander Navy, $350. Necklace, Noritamy.
