JOHANNA ORTIZ
For Fall—which was shown in a plush dining room in Paris—the Colombian maven streamlines her vision of barefoot glamour, balancing high-shine partywear and a tight edit of tropical prints with a ‘70s-inspired, rocker-inflected minimalism that puts the focus squarely on rich textures and exceptional tailoring. Cue: low-slung waistbands (and belts), poet sleeves, fringing, pleated lamé, silk and jacquard wrap dresses, and sequin-swathed separates which, along with the embellished blazers made in collaboration with The Extreme Collection, elevate otherwise effortless silhouettes to sophisticated new heights.
The buy: the green and gold flocked velvet midi.
