Nili Lotan Pre-Fall 2023
"It's a bit different from what I've done before", said Nili Lotan during a preview of her noticeably pared-down pre-fall collection. "I always do things very intuitively and then wonder why, rather than seeing something and saying, 'OK, I'll do it. "I'm very intuitive when it comes to designs and running the business."< /p>
In the past, the designer has rooted her inspirations in 60s and 70s references, which she described as "coming back from a very comfortable time within myself - growing up and creating my own style, figuring out my likes and dislikes as I grew up." For the pre-fall collection, Lotan shifted into high gear in the 90s, recalling when she started her career in New York and was inspired by the minimalist works of Calvin Klein, Jil Sander and Martin Margiela. /p>
For both men and women, a clean cut and neutral palette were the focal points, obvious to through smart suits (for women, blazers were accompanied by skinny pants, midi skirts and tailored shorts); tank tops and form-fitting tees and luxurious, roomy outerwear. Elsewhere, the designer mixed the signature 'rock 'n' roll' with polished leather jackets and updated military cargo pants – overall the layered range exuded modern minimalism with sophistication and a tomboyish attitude. .
"The men's line is a natural extension of my philosophy, my vocabulary and my universe of design. I sought to provide for a man what I did for women; timeless, nonchalant and refined wardrobe essentials that transcend time,” she said of the new assortment for men, especially a favorite trench coat over a white shirt and a gray cashmere sweater.
Other new for the season are new croc-embossed leather handbags — an extension of the category it launched in early December, as well as announcing the opening of three physical stores in New York and Los Angeles in mid-December and January.
