//DDD// Daniella Kallmeyer, Fall 2012

Written by Gordon West, Contributing Fashion Editor Photos by Gordon West @itakemycamera Last evening in the Highline Loft in Chelsea amidst gin cocktails and indie pop, Daniella Kallmeyer revealed her Fall 2012 collection of easy glamour. Wrought with simple shapes, lines and silhouettes, the collection felt approachable, available and, for the most part, translatable to any wardrobe. The exceptions to this translatability were a pant, blouse, skirt and turtleneck boasting a blue oil slick pattern.

Blocks of vinyl added another dimension to sweaters and jackets while shades of black, grey and cream kept the looks primarily rooted in neutrality. Two standout pieces were a roomy black silk suit and a sleek, trim pale grey wool suit. As a whole the collection was in the vein of an almost Germanic conservatism in terms of shapes, colors and lines but made sure to delve into some Bauhaus funk with iridescent fabric, vinyl and bright orange silks.
