___Matte Jersey
< see collection
There are certain universal truths that we accept and live by. For example: what goes up, must come down; what can go wrong, will go wrong; and Jersey knits always cling. Scratch that last one – this Spring’s jersey tops and dresses are just the thing to make you change your mind. Flatter the body you were born with. |

Denim___

Familiar dark denim becomes strategically disheveled. Take a snippet of the wrong side and make it right. Raw seams meet finished seams and exposed zippers are alongside hand-sewn snaps. These are the almost perfect clothes for your almost perfect life.

___Floral Silk Georgette
< see collection
Maybe it’s because your Grandma kept a vase of them in the guest bedroom, but there’s something a little old fashioned about silk flowers. I guess the same could be said for floral silk, but these pieces are the exception to the rule. Rumpled and washed with unexpected details such as raw-edge ruffles make what would be traditional anything but. Grandma never looked so hip.

Stretch Stripe___
see collection >
The structured suit has been reconstructed. You’ll feel feminine all season long even if you’re at work when you’d rather be in a flirty sundress at the cottage. Where once there were angles and straight lines there are now curves and ruffles. Don’t worry- the pinstripes will make sure that you still get taken seriously.
