High-collared jackets and body-skimming sheaths feel particularly appropriate as current attitudes and trends subtly gear towards refinement. The notion of sharp sophistication, without ironic translation, desperately yearns to return – not as a regurgitation of the past, but instead as a relevant reincarnation.
A-lined skirts with primary hued toppers walk a fine line between 60s youth rebellion and polished urbanite. The Jitrois S/S12 collection captures this delicate balance, combining clean lines and luxury fabrications with irresistible silhouettes.

Last night’s party celebrated the Ohne Titel & EASTON+COMBS installation for BOFFO Building Fashion 2011. Guests gathered at an industrial loft space in TriBeCa to enjoy a St. Germain cocktail-fueled opening reception.
BOFFO Building Fashion 2011 honors exceptional architecture and fashion with a sequence of collaborative retail installations. Ohne Titel, designed by Flora Gill and Alexa Adams, combines engineering with draping -- geometry with intuition. Eye-catching pieces from their F/W 2012 collection were hung from structures created by internationally-acclaimed architectural office, EASTON+COMBS.
Guests enjoyed music by Florian Sailer and a performance by TheBlackSoft as they mingled their way through this artistic wonderland at 57 Walker Street.
