2011 Fall/Winter
Elie Tahari
Today's Elie Tahari show, the designer would like you to know, is brought to you by the letter L. "Lots of Ls," he said backstage, when asked for a summation of the season. "L for love, L for luxe, L for luscious, L for layering, leather, lace, leopard, longer lengths." It's also brought to you by the good old letter D—for drama. Tahari's business is predicated on office-ready separates, but he seems to be making a play for the limelight, too. How else to explain the onslaught of oversize floral lace, chiffon bell sleeves, and all the fur that strutted down his runway today? "It's a smart and hot line," Tahari said. Smart is offering a classed-up twist on what he's already known for, in a palette of black, white, taupe, and burgundy: a trench in a smoky ombré leopard print, or a great white suit with long, flared trousers and a razor-sharp little jacket.
