The Look
Lightweight fabrics with clean silhouettes are a trademark for Lam's raw silk sheath dresses with low necklines. Considered very feminine, Lam's Fall collections enter contrast with wide-leg pants in various types of wool wrapped up with stiff belts and cashmere pea coats. The look gives a sharp, timeless feel, working in the same vein as Michael Kors with the attempt to reinvent American sportswear.
