New York Fashion Week :: Richard Chai [The ZOO]

Richard Chai :: Spring Summer 2006

Talk about a breath of fresh air. The Richard Chai show on Wednesday pulled through as one of the most wearable, 'no frills' New York collection seen so far.True, it was not a great departure from Chai's last collection (trademark muted colors, clean silhouettes), yet one could not help but fall in love with items such as his bottle green parachute trench, crisp cotton patchwork shirts, and of course those cuffed shorts for spring. Jackets had their sleeves rolled back and collars sharply turned, while belted with taffetta bows. These were beautifully edited pieces that spoke intelligently to the New York woman looking for something more than just a cocktail dress. [Rania Abu Eid]
