Micheal Kors’ glam in on the water

«It does not matter whether we are in St. Tropez, St. Barts, Bora Bora or Bali. These are memories of travel». Michael Kors has a talent for dressing jet-setters headed to exotic destinations. His women appear as if they have stepped out of glossy magazine photos, with natural makeup and hair slicked back into long braids. They wear low sandals, small white lace dresses, and flat bags to make packing a breeze. «I refer to it as ‘barefoot glamour», the Us designer stated to MFF. «Just like any vacation, water is involved».

That is why the fashion show was held in Brooklyn at the water’s edge with a view of Manhattan and the famous bridge. In attendance in the front row were celebrities such as Blake Lively, Rita Ora, and Halle Berry. However, the show was opened by Italian top model Vittoria Ceretti, who is currently making headlines for her romantic involvement with Leonardo DiCaprio, as showed by photos of the couple kissing in a nightclub. Of course, other women have taken care of styling masculine jackets with light dresses or pairing swimsuits with metal rings in the collective imagination. Examples include Irina Shayk, Mariacarla Boscono, and Emily Ratajkowski, as known as Em Rata on Instagram. These icons and new faces also know how to manage celebrity skin. «I thought of Sharon Tate, Jackie Kennedy strolling barefoot in Capri, Jane Birkin who was english but lived in France and had that easygoing Us demeanor. The collection embodies this era of relaxation, even on vacation».

With a focus on proportion, the collection features short and long dresses, lightweight trench coats in periwinkle suede, evening gowns in makeup colors, and sequined pieces for men. Knits and woven leather baskets complete the offerings. In light of recent developments between Tapestry and Capri holdings deal, one may wonder about their stance on the current trend of super Groups. «I am here to discuss the collection, but we are also witnessing changes in fashion,» Micheal Kors stated. «When I began, there were barriers, but now it is like the fall of the Berlin wall in the world of fashion. There was a lot happening. It reminds me of when I traveled to Paris for Celine. I recall Marc (Jacobs) at Louis Vuitton and Narciso Rodriguez at Loewe. We were among the most Us designers in the world, and the rules were changing. Paris saw the emergence of Japanese and British talents. Today, we are experiencing radical change, which is thrilling. However, as I always say, progress must be made one step at time».
