One of my most-worn fall layers is the J.Crew rollneck sweater, an iconic staple since 1988. Since then, its even been reimagined by New York designers Eckhaus Latta, Collina Strada, Buci, Tanner Fletcher, and Patrick Taylor. Loved by several of my colleagues (Eliza Huber, Bobby Schuessler, and Lauren Eggertsen), I like wearing it with capris…
Christian Siriano’s Spring 2027 runway show felt a bit like a fairy tale — and that was the point. The designer said he was inspired by an 18th-century French fairy tale, “The Story of the Queen of the Flowery Isles.” “The story was romantic in the end, but it starts quite dark and sinister, kind of…
Kallmeyer is coming into its own.
