Fresh off their CFDA Menswear Designer of the Year award win, Public School’s Maxwell Osborne and Dao-Yi Chow sharpened their aesthetic with a women’s collection that skewed urban cool. “We wanted to do something lighter and play with transparencies and different fabrics,” said Chow. A bouclé moto jacket, for example, was shown with an elongated shirt and terry cloth sweatpants, while a black coat featuring a detachable skirt was layered over a crisp white shirtdress. Things got sexy with cutouts, most notably a blue sheath with a sliver of exposed skin above the waist.
