2011 Fall/Winter
Reed Krakoff
The designer showed his Fall collection at his 34th Street showroom adjacent to Coach's headquarters, and from the looks of the clothes, he's been paying attention to some of the critiques leveled at his first two outings. Krakoff's strength is his outerwear. He offered several different takes on shearlings, from a parka to a cropped bomber to a zip-front vest. What stood them apart from all the others on the runways this week was their clipped, geometric precision. Krakoff doesn't do shaggy or unruly; an animal-spot calf-hair coat is as wild as things got. In fact, it was one of the show's few prints. Like other designers this season, Krakoff seemed to prefer the orderliness of monochromes. A nude double-face hooded coat with a matching merino thermal sweater and wool sateen trousers was the kind of look you could imagine doing well at his boutiques.
