This Copenhagen cutie tempers a slouchy-shorts-and-tee combo with a buttery blazer for a polished vibe that's totally spot-on for Summer. The key to getting the look right? Keep the proportions balanced, the color palette simple and the accessories neutral. A crisp trompe l'oeil T-shirt and sleek metal jewelry add interest, while chunky wedges keep the look grounded.

Fuzzy Mohair Sweaters, Tuxedo Striped Capes, and Graphic Lines Dominate DKNY’s Fall 2011 Collection

Chi Diem Chau — Sun, 13 Feb 2011 16:19:11 PST

>> Donna Karan created a highly graphic collection for her DKNY Fall 2011 collection seen earlier today in Chelsea in a brick-covered venue fitting for her city chic collection. Inspired by modernists in New York City, Karan envisioned fuzzy angora sweaters - made in bright hues and bold stripe patterns - houndstooth suits and skirts, wide-leg trousers, skinny pencil pants, and tailored coats. It was the details, like a recurring tux stripe detail or contrast color inserts, giving the collection a smart shot of modernity, youth, and a slight nod to the ‘70s.

Bright shots of red, pink, and henna came into play tempered with black, cream, navy, and shades of grey. Outerwear included sleek three-quarter length coats embellished with leather sleeve accents, knit and houndstooth padded jackets, which was Karan’s remixed take on the classic puff coat, and the pièce de résistance: a black and cream tuxedo striped cape. For accessories, the designer highlighted ankle-braced Mary-Janes and cap-toe booties. And on the handbag front, mini cross-bady bags adorned with oversized tassels and tri-color satchels.
