\n\tAdam Lippes is getting ready to hit the road.<\/p>\n
\n\tIt\u2019s only fitting that, for the designer\u2019s fall 2026 collection, he continued looking at cars for inspiration as the business gears up for international expansion in both the U.K. and Japan.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cI touch very softly on inspiration. Mostly, what it does for me is drive color and texture, and sometimes it helps shape a mood board,\u201d Lippes said. \u201cYou\u2019ll see the bright reds and blues that came through, all of which are from vintage Ferraris. There\u2019s a lot of slick fabrics in the collection that came off of materials used in car dashboards and linings.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe references never felt too on-the-nose, but rather Lippes doing what he does best. \u201cWe\u2019re really elevating the brand on all levels,\u201d he said, noting his nascent handbag category is the only U.S. brand manufactured in France. In the spirit of his take on haute sportswear, there was an emphasis on pure silks and double-faced cashmere.<\/p>\n
\n\tEven on the more technical side, outerwear rendered in a water-resistant silk faille gave the more practical pieces a luxe touch. In that vein, Lippes played with python, like a white top and skirt that mimicked a snakeskin pattern, which took over a year to perfect the weave on. Among the more special pieces, a top and a look that gave a peppered, snake-like effect with hand-painted sequins. \u201cNo two sequins are the same color,\u201d he said. \u201cAt least in the U.S., our more elevated and less safe pieces sell better for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
