The Tamesis
Sally LaPointe used this season to present a presentation at Fashionphile’s New York headquarters. It’s a great collaboration between the two brands, considering that for every LaPointe statement look, you’ll want an equally bold handbag to match. “The idea is that my customers can come in and buy the collection but also check out the bags before they leave,” LaPointe said.
So what’s the mood going to look like for the upcoming fall outings? According to LaPointe, there was a lot of leopard print, but it was more muted and darker than what she’s done before. A statement coat is always a must-have and this season comes in a sleekly tailored leopard print coat with a stiff collar for an edgy look. LaPointe also used the series to explore some undiscovered territory. Fringed coats that look like silk or satin in lookbooks are actually made from raffia. While LaPointe is best known for its fur, there are some great faux fur options popping up this season that aren’t fake at all.
LaPointe also hired Jordyn Woods, a friend of the brand, to design Woods by Jordyn shoes for each model. The model and influencer is a tried and true LaPointe girl, which helps create some suave looks.
