One of the things we look for in a collection is wearability no matter the season, and the same applies to Chinese New Year releases. In celebration of the Year of the Rooster, DKNY Creative Directors, Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne, envision a collection of essentials that seamlessly blend with the Pre-Spring 2017 wardrobe.
Tradition meets modernity with flocked lace mini-dresses. Tailoring meets sport with embossed sweatshirts and paneled, patchwork column dresses. Pinstripe remains a core source of inspiration that the designers deconstruct. Here, paneled sweaters and contrast pinstripe crewnecks hearken to the brand’s roots.
To express a streetwise sensibility, the designers created a hand-drawn rooster icon that abstractly spells out the letters DKNY. How cool is that? The rooster appears printed, embossed, and embroidered across apparel and accessories executed in scarlet, black, and gold–as tradition would have it. The result is a graphic yet festive look you can sport even when the festivities subside.
