Robert Geller Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

Eng­lish Punk–Find­ing the inspi­ra­tion of his lat­est col­lec­tion while lis­ten­ing to early eight­ies post-​​punk band The Sound, Robert Geller decided to usurp the clas­sic Eng­lish mode of style for a vehi­cle to fur­ther push his sig­na­ture design stan­dards. A war of the loose and fit­ted, the mild man­ners of the gen­tle­man and the rash ten­den­cies of youth meshed together for a delight­ful show­ing. Tack­ling var­i­ous inter­pre­ta­tions of knick­ers, casual sweats and volu­mi­nous trousers were brought forth for a lively show­ing. Armed with prints and the occa­sional splash of bold color, Geller’s col­lec­tion high­lighted a dynamic range of gar­ments as usual. Whether craft­ing a cozy grandpa’s cardi­gan or a belted coat, the lineup served up cov­eted pieces with smart details. Amongst tonal color block­ing, short-​​sleeved cable-​​knits and dip-​​dyed fab­rics, Robert Geller’s fall show­ing ush­ered in a sea­son of sophis­ti­cated but ener­getic pieces.
