Jenni Kayne F/W 08.09 NYC

NEW YORK, February 8, 2008 – She might be from sunny Los Angeles, but her Fall collection showed she could cope with the cold—and turn on the heat. The show's moody palette and menswear fabrics, like a blue-and-black check, referenced grunge, as did the slouchy shape of the blazers. Kayne's second touchstone was the forties, which explains how a flannel jacket with a silver fox collar that radiated old-Hollywood élan came into the mix. What stood out most were the dressier pieces, like a color-blocked jersey scoop gown, because she is too into pretty to do really grungy.

I was there, it was very chic. I know Jenni Kayne counts the Olsens in her close social circle, but she seems to rely very heavily on their coordinating techniques and silhouettes.

That said, I hate presentations, it was very awkward.

I like it ... sort of. There are some very chic looks but others feel sort of drab for me....
