Jenni Kayne
REVIEW
COMPLETE COLLECTION
NEW YORK, June 12, 2009
By
Nineties minimalism was one of Jenni Kayne's talking points for Resort, which the L.A. native explored by way of her laid-back, SoCal-cool aesthetic. Translation: oversize sheer tees, miniskirts, and tank dresses in a neutral palette shot through with Day-Glo green and yellow. Some pieces—shapeless striped cover-ups, for example—were way too casual, and Kayne was on firmer ground when she notched up the sophistication, as in a cap-sleeve button-front shirt paired with a high-waisted neon pencil skirt. Also on point were structured pieces given a twist: tailored vests worn like dresses, and a trenchcoat knotted loosely in the front to create a subtle draping effect.
