Proenza Schouler Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez see their target customer as stepping into a new and unpredictable decade. As the show notes stated, they feel the need to blanket her in a protective layer of strength and confidence. The exquisite, luxe look of the collection eluded ease and nonchalance. Dresses twisted and wrapped around the body and were fastened by a single closure – there was nothing fussy in the detail. Coats, of which there were plenty, slipped from the shoulders in a casual, flirty way. The collection felt understated and sexy.
