Retro-inspired prints and
silhouettes, always with a Californian attitude—the customer's
obsessions have changed. "First we really sold a lot of pants. Then it
was the date top, which they wore with premium denim. It evolved into
dresses, and in the past few seasons we've seen a huge surge of
jumpsuits," said Turk, managing to sum up the last two decades in
contemporary fashion in a few sentences.
That's not to say that now it's all jumpsuits, all the time. Pants, in fact, were big for Fall. The slim-cut ankle-length style that's been going strong for a few seasons is still there, but Turk mixed in flat-front palazzos and elongated kick flares. A Watteau-back dress in a hand-painted floral was paired with matching narrow trousers, while a camel tunic and trenchcoat were matched up with a more '70s shape.
Turk spends most of her time in Palm Springs and Los Angeles, but she was born in San Francisco, and she found a lot of inspiration in Northern California this season. There were many coats, including a mohair buffalo-check style with an oversize collar and some faux fur looks. "It's citified in a fresh way," she said. What the collection offered, more than anything, was options. While Turk's world will always revolve around the colorful and the almost-kitsch, she's been doing this for long enough that she knows what her customer wants.
