The Show: Tracy Reese
The Theme: An exercise in fine texture: feathers, knits, voluminous brocade, embroidery, and sequins.
The Color Palette: Natural hues of mustard yellow and brown, progressing into graphic black and white. A palette of burgundy with pops of gold rounded out the evolving palette.
The Collection’s Signature Look: The show was highly diverse, from ornate, embroidered brocade fabrics to modernist graphic prints in slouchy silhouettes. The most stunning look was a winter landscape graphic on a pullover, paired with slouchy herringbone boyfriend trousers, a fringed scarf, and messy bed-head casual locks.
