DKNY Fall 2010

If Donna Karan had one message to send with her DKNY collection for all, it was this: get a coat–and make it a fabulous one at that. The bold fall collection she presented Sunday was filled with an endless array of beautiful outerwear; you name it–riding coats, vests, boyfriend jackets and peacoats–and she had it. And it all looked terrific. Inspired by her heart and soul New York, the palette ventured from rich vicuna and cognac into port and sapphire, with some plaid thrown in for good measure. The miniskirts were terribly sweet, particularly with their pleated precision. Karan explored collage prints for fall and the results were particularly finessed in a cravat dot print silk collage dress and deco beaded tissue flannel colorblocked dress. The geometric nature of it all was clearly a natural extension of Karan’s inner-Manhattan, which made for a warm blend of her classic comfort silhouettes minus any of the cold, steely gaze.
