As the weather warms, fashion cools — in vibrant hues of oceanic blues and greens!
This season, American designer Reed Krakoff presents a variety of summer pieces on his Net-A-Porter marketplace, but among my personal favorites were the ones which ranged in serene sapphire to shimmering sequins. The prints were bold but minimal in classic Krakoff style, while the solids found their details in their impeccable construction and tailoring. The tote pictured in this set is especially interesting — it is a unique python snake print on canvas! As for the oxford shoes, they’re made from exotic Raffia palm leaves, exuding tropical style in a less-than-obvious but sophisticated way.

Krakoff is known for his use of contemporary design created in fusion with subtle femininity and utilitarian concept. With his latest Summer 2012 Ready-to-Wear collection, the idea still rings loud and true.

Featured in this set: Printed silk-chiffon wrap dress, python-print canvas tote, embellished silk top, Raffia palm oxford shoes, wool-sateen and silk blazer. All designed by Reed Krakoff.
