Drawing inspiration from France’s opulent resort towns, our collection celebrates the arrival of summer with a renewed sense of optimism and joy. The journey starts with zesty shades of orange, lemon and apricot. Crisp cottons add shape and volume while scarf-like ties cinch and define the body. Bold stripes remind us of deck chairs and umbrellas, and sun-soaked yellows are gathered and pleated, billowing like sails in the offshore breeze. Anoraks, shrunken cotton jackets, pull-on pants and short skorts give rise to a sporty attitude contributing to the ease and sense of freedom in this collection.
This cinematic Riviera energy continues as we ease into late summer with sophisticated berries, taupes and browns leading the way. But fabrics remain light, diaphanous and quite feminine with pointelle knits and lace-trimmed satin. Matching cotton separates help add ease to summer dressing while a pleated, playful cape top with matching pants and a satin trench add joy.
Whether we are traveling to Antibes or staying in our own backyard, we continue to explore our Californian minimalist roots as we journey through an endless summer.
