come in grey/black too

Jen Kao’s collection is light, airy and wholly wearable, with soft jersey knits in pale neutrals and updated shapes. Every ethereal layer drapes beautifully around the body, even normally-heavy pieces like a motorcycle vest seems weightless. The designs are grounded by the shoes, adorned with furry and feathered ankles and bandage-like straps. I want to wear everything, especially the sheer pullovers and t-shirt dress with unexpected bustier details.

Ports 1961’s collection draws inspiration from the 60s, with kaftans, shift dresses, and separates updated in luxe silks, leathers, jersey knits, and beaded textures and draped into a variety of avant-garde shapes. The color palette ranges from soft neutrals to petal pinks and bright reds; the accessories include beaded wood clutches, sheer elbow gloves, and clear hatboxes twisted into boomerang-shaped totes. I love the fresh, relaxed take on the mod/ Mad Men era; the clothes smartly integrate period ideas but still manage to come off as wholly modern.
