TFW diary: Laid back lovelies at Rita Liefhebber
A sublime comedown from the construction zone over at the Trump tower, Rita Liefhebber also showed her fall collection last night. Opting to show at Jonathan + Olivia rather than Exhibition grounds as she did last season, the ease that breathed through her fall collection matched the equally laid back crowd. A loose grey wool overcoat with black leather trimming, a tie-dye splatter shirt dress, a black button down vest and several collared offerings were shown on delightfully understyled models who stood against a wall while everyone made up shopping lists. Liefhebber’s pieces always seem to resemble something I have in my closet… just fresher, lovelier, must-havier. Case in point: the ombre velvet tees in purpley-pink and blue degradé which look just like my favourite⎯and similarly ombred⎯peter pan collar Opening Ceremony dress: so similar that I can already picture myself in them, but different enough to make me really want to buy in for seconds. And thirds. And fourths…
