Here’s the news from the Nili Lotan front: Corduroy, denim, shearling, cashmere, silk; jeans, sweaters, jackets, suits—you name it, Lotan has rendered it in an almost-white shade of cream across both her men’s and women’s offerings. It’s an effective statement from a designer who’s developed a following for her blue jeans. Denim still features prominently in the sales showroom, but for this lookbook Lotan was “just feeling cream!”

Something else her instinct pointed toward: long, slim tailored jackets—“very ’70s,” she said—instead of the boxier, menswear-y fit of seasons past. A standout a black velvet jacket with an abundance of buttons, Edwardian style, was paired with a new would-be It-pant silhouette: elongated and slightly voluminous but fitted at the waist.

Lotan played with a variation of the same color combination throughout her lookbook: cream and dark bark brown or black. It toed the line between wintery and summer-ready—or summer hopeful, rather. Lotan isn’t the kind of designer to reinvent every season. She understands that her customers want timelessness imbued with a sense of today. “It’s like cooking, you’re always using the same ingredients!” she said. “The best chefs just know how to make things taste better.”
