collection. Like many designers this season, he’s been reminiscing about simpler times, in Kors’ case it was not the ’90s but the late ’70s, when Rudi Gernreich, Halston and Stephen Burrows were ruling the fashion scene by celebrating and freeing the body.
Kors brought back the belt, and made the low-slung modern accessory the cornerstone of his collection, which was shown in a leafy urban oasis on 14th Street, with Serena Williams, Anne Hathaway, New York Mayor Eric Adams and a slew of starlets in the seats. Fast-forward to today, when climate change is a grim reality, and the idea of celebrating the body is tied not only to liberation, but being comfortable in increasingly sweltering temperatures. There are more days than one would fear that wearing a swimsuit under Kors’ black-and-white floral caftan, or a racer-back bodysuit with a shimmering sequined sarong skirt, would be the chicest, coolest option, not just in luxury resorts, but in the city streets.
With an eye toward the melding of beach and street, sarongs, pareos, bodysuits and bikini tops were paired with sharp tailoring in tropical hues of citrine, green, blue and red, along with tried-and-true neutrals. Modern silk jersey gowns were anchored by chunky jeweled necklines.
