Designing this Pre-Fall collection Naeem Khan was focused on the fact that a travel-ready wardrobe is of high importance to his well-heeled clientele once the warm weather hits. His new outing includes sleek, packable black sequin gowns and caftans made with silhouettes that fit tighter to the body than usual. Khan wanted to be conscious of all the summer weddings and parties that women are attending, and he did so with his usual flair, but without a lot of heavy embellishment.
There was a striking, sheer long dress embroidered with flora and fauna that felt soft and feminine rather than shiny and glamorous. A pair of silk drawstring trousers were a lovely addition, especially considering their versatility. These pieces can be styled for both daytime and evening. Of course, Khan also showed a selection of black tie–appropriate gowns and his most popular silhouette: a hybrid of pants and a floor-length ball skirt.
