FALL 2024 READY-TO-WEAR
Harris Reed noted how hes been working up to this collection.
Theres been some major code shifting at Nina Ricci since Reed took the helm just over a year ago.
Never has the swish socialite we tend to associate with the house felt so haute.
This idea originated in a photo from the 60s of model-actress Suzy Parker by Richard Avedon.
Reed, having relocated to Paris, says he now has a better sense of the Parisian attitude.
Maybe this explains the toned-down exuberance (the runway strut, however, remained).
Whats missing is the spontaneity, the insouciance, theje ne sais quoi.
