Nicole Hanley’s spring collection — which until this week had been known as Hanley Mellon — took shape after a recent trip to Havana, Cuba. Rooted in the idea of layering, the lineup fused contrasting earthy colors, cubic prints and rich textures for “an element of surprise.” Looks such as a mustard silk drawstring shirtdress worn over printed black-and-white jacquard jeans resulted in a spirited, eclectic lineup that was a nod to the Seventies.
Some offerings riffed on military silhouettes, including a safari vest and culottes with cargo pockets, done in bright whites as well as soft pinks, terra-cotta browns and burnt oranges, all with a sun-faded appearance. A colorful tweed vest coat with deep pockets and a hint of metallic sheen was a chic, statement outerwear option for the season.
