Reyes Mixes A Little Work, A Little Play In L.A.
March 12, 2010 11:20 am

On the heels of one of his most successful trunk shows to date, Brian Reyes is in Los Angeles lingering in the glow of his well-received Fall ‘10 collection. The best news for the label, still looking to translate its critical success into sustained commercial viability? “Women are shopping again,” Reyes says with relief. “They understand the value of each design now, and they’ve come to expect our quality fabrics.” Not to mention the subtly graphic prints that have become a standout and signature of his line. The designer’s elegantly draped tulip cape (Fall’s answer to the ubiquitous structured blazer?) in a jacquard birch print and an updated version of his body-con dresses with peplum detailing have consistently been the most popular with buyers and customers. But Reyes is already looking ahead—and mixing business with a little pleasure. He’s days away from debuting his capsule collection designed exclusively for Saks, but, he says, “I actually spent the day on the beach picking out my fabrics for resort.”
