There's always so much to feel good about at a Michael Kors show. Not only do we get Mr Michael Kors in all his post show glory, smiling and running like a nine year-old down the runway, but we regularly get treated to great music, and A-lister models we've actually heard of. This time we got all that and more, as Kors added the quadruple pleasure of consistently terrific clothes, making this a quadra-fecta fashion moment. With the Mamas and the Papas 'California Dreaming' on the soundtrack and clean light pouring through Spring Street Studios, Kors delivered a collection of louche looking luxury. Against a cast of truly beautiful women like Carolyn Murphy, Karen Elson, Jacquetta Wheeler and Frankie Rayder, Kors' cosy cool clothes in a warm palette of flecked oatmeal and tobacco looked even richer. The designer called this collection the 'Big Easy' and he was spot on. Wide-leg trousers in supple buttery cashmere and oversized mega-ply sweaters all enveloped the body like a warm cocoon, while speckled furs bounced with light volume over tailored daywear. Kors cuts a mean pair of double-faced cashmere sweatpants, but this season we were more moved by the delicate craft details such as bird feathers, leather flower embroideries, or the metal rivet holes that were dusted across prim grey wool dresses and coats.
