Donna Karan's fall collection reimagines career dressing with elegant velvet suits, tailored jackets, and body-con silhouettes. The collection also features updated brushed jersey pieces for a more luxurious feel. Occasion dressing is highlighted with classic shapes in luxurious textures like satin, velvet, and sequins, suitable for both formal events and everyday wear. The collection also includes standout outerwear pieces like a black overcoat with an ocelot fur collar and a suede trench coat with python print.
At Donna Karan for fall the goal was to take career dressing and “turn it on its head.” Working women will be pleased to find elegant velvet suits in a shade of “chocolate plum” straight from Karan’s own archives; tailored jackets with dramatic shawl lapels secured with gold Robert Lee Morris-inspired buttons; and modern body-con iterations made from compact crepe knits. The design team also took Karan’s go-to brushed jersey and redeveloped it for a new generation—and a new price point.
But this season, the label seemed to have hit a sweet spot with its occasion dressing, which was all about classic body-hugging shapes in luxurious textures; long bias cut gowns in liquid satin, sumptuous burnout velvets, and lots and lots of sequins. Those pieces could work just as well for a formal work event, weddings, or even a senior prom. Ditto a gold-foiled velvet suit that was made for the dazzling sparkle of a disco ball, not the florescent lights of a board room.
Rounding out the offering was a section of handsome outerwear: a traditional black overcoat with “ocelot” fur collar was a standout, ditto a suede trench coat with embossed python print. At $600 to $800, it’s sure to be at the higher end of the brand’s pricepoint, but the idea is for it to be part of a woman’s classic wardrobe. Said the team, “These aren’t buy now, wear now items. We want these pieces to be timeless, the same way as when Donna had the collection herself.
