\n\tFollowing a runway collection last season that demonstrated Catherine Holstein\u2019s ability to create atmosphere as powerfully as she creates clothes, resort has her turn her attention to distilling the essence of Khaite. As the New York label reaches its 10-year milestone, Holstein used the season to focus on the foundations that have fueled the brand\u2019s rise \u2014 exceptional outerwear, luxurious fabrications and a point of view that remains her own.<\/p>\n
\n\tThat renewed clarity suits a resort season particularly well with its extended selling period and global reach, and one that demands a wardrobe capable of moving between climates and occasions. Holstein responded with a collection that balances airy getaway dressing with substantial outerwear, delicate lingerie references against sharp tailoring, and softness against structure. The familiar tensions that define Khaite remained present: masculine and feminine, polished and undone, sensual yet practical.<\/p>\n
\n\tOuterwear continued to be one of the collection\u2019s strongest propositions and a clear expression of brand identity. Leather jackets were sculpted through the waist with exaggerated shoulders and dramatic volume, while wool coats and riding jackets were manipulated into silhouettes that felt subtly unexpected. Distressed leather and shearling lent a lived-in quality that kept the collection from feeling overly precious, while technical fabrications appeared in lightweight skirts and water-repellent outerwear designed to deliver impact without bulk.<\/p>\n
\n\tKnitwear was equally compelling. Hand-knit cashmere pieces carried a touch of the \u201990s grunge spirit that has long informed the Khaite universe, while lace-trimmed separates and lingerie-inspired details helped anchor an undone softness. Even familiar wardrobe categories were elevated through material innovation, from silk jersey T-shirts to new cashmere jersey developments and archival yarns revived specifically for the brand. Prints remained sparse but effective, with hearts and stars providing subtle graphic punctuation throughout.<\/p>\n
\n\tAccessories are becoming an increasingly important part of the story. The Lotus bag, one of the brand\u2019s longest-running handbag families, now accounts for roughly 25 percent of handbag sales and returned in updated proportions and finishes. The Blake family continued to expand with new shoulder silhouettes, while footwear balanced practicality with personality through platform boots, furry sandals and both kitten and high-heel versions of key styles.<\/p>\n
\n\tMore than anything, resort reinforced how attuned Holstein is to the women she is dressing. Removed from the framing of a runway narrative, the collection allowed the precision of her design language to come fully into focus: architectural outerwear, obsessive fabric development and subtle manipulations of proportion that made even familiar categories feel distinctive.<\/p>\n
