Cushnie et Ochs Pre-Fall 2016

For Pre-Fall 2016, Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs were inspired by India and the magic of traditional sari dressing. Brimming with their signature sensuality, the designs broke away from their trademark bodycon— giving way to easier and fluid silhouettes.





The duo opted for an airier disposition and feel, that was almost completely bereft of embellishment. Naturally, that quintessential Cushnie et Ochs sophistication was not at all sacrificed— with elegant form-fitting dresses, polished one-shoulder tops, expertly-tailored cropped trousers, and restrained yet classic blazers.




The grounded palette of royal purple, burnt sienna, khaki, navy, and other rich hues was inspired by the shades of the Indian sunset and right in line with the season’s more neutral shades.




Separates included posh trenches, high-waist pants with cascading tie sashes, and textured coats. Standout detailing ranged from draping to the brand’s signature cutout detailing.




Jumpsuits made the case for awards season-perfect after party dressing, as did the slew of gowns and dresses that will both turn heads and land their wearers atop numerous Best Dressed lists.
