Joni Mitchell was on the speakers singing about "falling in love again," but you didn't need the Lady of the Canyon to tell you we were going back to the 1970s at Derek Lam. His preoccupation with the decade is well known. Still, the nostalgia factor ticked up a few notches this season—there's something about patchwork suede with contrast topstitching that just takes you back. But if Lam's references felt quite literal this time around, that didn't make the clothes any less compelling. For one thing, the '70s are having a moment. For another, it's great to see a designer embracing his passions with such gusto.
Beyond all that topstitched suede, which came in gorgeous color combinations of lilac and violet or denim blue and emerald, there were flares, and lots of them. High-waisted or hip-slung, some with double rows of buttons at the hips sailor pant-style, they glided out on flatform sandals or flats, leg-elongating either way. "It's a continuation of my preoccupation with being an American designer," Lam said backstage. "I love the American codes: the jean jacket, the shirtwaist." The basic tee is another classic that got a rethink, in cashmere and silk ribbed knit. On the not-so-basic end of things were dresses, the bustlines of which were outlined in brass studwork. Joni Mitchell would've fallen hard for those.
WE’RE already heading into autumn with Seventies style in mind thanks to the last batch of shows and Derek Lam, who has a fondness for the era anyway, is championing it again for spring/summer. So step forward patchwork and suede, seriously high waists and long lean flares. Rendered in a typical jarring Seventies colour palette – teal, purple and burgundy – it was entirely in keeping with his own take on mixing and mismatching shades, but was born to great effect here. Less folksy and stereotypical Seventies, this collection tapped into the trademarks of Seventies America such as jean jackets.
