After several seasons of maximal sparkle, the pendulum has swung toward restraint — and the result feels less like a retreat than a power move.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cp>Designers from Copenhagen to Seoul showed collections with almost no embellishment this year. The drama moved to the back, the gloves, and the exit look. What remains on the front of the dress is fit — unforgiving, immaculate fit — which is exactly why minimalism is the most demanding trend of all.\u003C/p>\n\u003Cblockquote>\u003Cp>“Minimalism is not the absence of design.
