Ready-to-wear designer Roksanda channels post-WWII aesthetic with 2017 Resort Collection. Borrowing floral prints, voluminous shapes of the 1940s and opting for war-time practicality and functionality with solid, wide-leg trousers with matching oversized blazers, Roksanda plays with the dualities of femininity during the war and the years that followed. Next to heavy wool jackets she presents fine-knit sweaters accessorized with molded bows and tulle—all of which comes in muted navys, mustards, and mossy green shades.
