DKNY Resort 2013

NEW YORK July 7, 2012/ — ,Chic, colorful, fun; sophisticated with just a bit of edge – these are pieces to lift your spirits and your wardrobe.

For Resort 2013, DKNY brings you in the mood with styles that speak to how you feel and where you’re going – day-into-evening items that dress up a little bit or a lot.

It starts with the dress – simple, tailored and embellished. Short sleeved and sleeveless chemises with geometric cut outs at the neck; tweeds feminized with illusion tops and sleeves.

Tailoring is streamlined, molded and framed with black: micro or macro houndstooth sculpts clean and modern. Winter white and silver tweeds freshen the palette. Tux-inspired separates come very sharp and satin-edged, in sleek jackets, cummerbund shorts and double-pleat tapered pants. And the mood strikes for serious color, add in lipstick and hot pink tailored separates.

Sometimes you need just a piece to glam it up: a jeweled tee, a reversible satin baseball bomber, a reflective sequin or rectangle-pailette skirt, a faux fur fitted capelet to throw over anything. Finish it all with a satin/wool shearling parka, or the splurge of a color blocked shearling coat with an unexpected leather belt.
