“Pre-Fall 2019 is inspired by artist Georgia O’Keeffe — the way she lived her life and how she interpreted the American Southwest. Saturated colours and textured finishes are influenced by the landscapes O’Keeffe saw and painted. Modern shirtdresses, cotton tunics and easy dresses are done in stripe-on-stripes, smocking and Japanese indigo prints. Jewellery and accessories continue the story in organic sculptures, woven leather bags and pony clogs and lace-up shoes.” —Tory Burch

Silhouettes
Easy shapes telegraph Georgia O’Keeffe’s austere and effortless approach to dressing. Quiet workwear and simple shirtdresses balance billowy skirts and smocked dresses. The collection’s simplicity celebrates O’Keeffe’s pared down aesthetic, with understated Japanese influences.
Palette
Warm desert hues of clay red, rust brown, sunset pink, indigo and lavender saturate clean neutrals—ivory, white and Tory navy.
Prints & Patterns
Ombre and layered pigment-striping adds an unexpected depth, while desert blooms inspires a painterly floral print. Traditional Japanese indigo dyeing techniques such as shibori give fabrics an artisanal richness. Charming sequin flowers are scattered across cotton workwear. Mirrored embellishments add subtle shine. A sun motif print called The Poetry of Things print is a nod to O’Keeffe’s book of the same name.

Fabrications
Light and airy fabrics – cotton poplin, featherweight silk – add to the ease of the collection. Lace is engineered in new ways by piecing and layering various lace trims. Smocking and pleating add dimension and movement, while a cowhide hair calf leather nods to ranchers of the American Southwest.

Accessories
Rugged desert chukas and clogs are done in feminine finishes—sunset-hued velvets and hair calf. Cowhide hair calf appears on a variety of footwear silhouettes as well as in handbags, which have easy, roomy shapes. Tied fabric straps nod to O’Keefe’s penchant for headscarves as well as for a Japanese approach to dress. Swirled jewellery underscore O’Keeffe’s penchant for clean, organic shapes.
