She continued this ethos for pre-fall with an emphasis on providing styles that could transition through the delivery’s summer to fall seasons.
“What we really focused on was layering, and I think that’s part of our language anyways. One of the things we focus on the most is how to layer up and layer down; I feel like that’s probably true for me for the entire year,” Wescoat Pound said.
Many of her pre-fall looks were layered to evoke a modern, clean and easy look, as seen through an adorable striped knit polo atop a signature striped button-up paired with a great pair of navy trousers, knit gloves, Italian nubuck leather belt (the belt category continued to prove strong throughout) and a new leather roll clutch. Ditto to a double-layered striped button-down shirt that offers wearers the look of wearing two shirts through the ease of just one.
“I think it’s so exciting when you can wear your clothes a thousand different ways,” the designer said, pointing out versatile lightweight knits with thumb holes beneath signature mix-and-match tailoring and intriguing new ultra lightweight paper leather and paper suede layers. There also was a new detachable halter dress that doubles as a crop top and skirt.
