FIRST READ: Staged in a manicured garden, the design team served up a wardrobe that could take your from a day at the pool, to an afternoon of shopping, to a black-tie event to close out the day. A strapless, drapey blouse teamed with a matching cream sash and relaxed-fit pants had a very waspy aesthetic, while a series of bodycon wrap dresses with ruffles and billowy sleeves played to the signature feminine silhouettes for which the brand is known. As always, the collection’s eveningwear was on point: two standouts being a strapless tomato red mini dress with oversized column sleeves, and a lilac jumpsuit with wide-leg pants and silk arm ties.
