The pre-fall collection, designed by the Issa in-house team following the departure of creative director Blue Farrier last fall, was packed with fluid fabrics, draped silhouettes and cinched waists. The label’s signature wrap came in a navy-and-black belted pencil dress with white piping, a bougainvillea-pink kimono dress with a deep V at the front, and a turtleneck number in an abstract flower print.
Coats, too, took their cue from wrap styles: Some were made from felted wool and had a Japanese feel with belts tied obi-style, while others were longer and more languid.
