Though Diane von Furstenberg’s creative director Michael Herz called the collection “just really easy resort pieces,” an aura of controlled bohemianism ran through. Prints and languid lines anchored the lineup, with mixed patterns — florals of contrasting scale or mixed with dots; an indigo woodblock appropriated from a vintage kimono find — used for long skirts, wide trousers and a new take on a wrap dress, an apron style.
While coordinating sweatshirts and pants in engineered prints had an Eighties look-good-at-the-airport vibe, the prevailing mood harkened to the prior decade, particularly several jumpsuits. Designed to look like blouse-and-fluid trouser combinations, these veered smartly from boho toward a Seventies-by-way-of-Forties vibe.
