Nili Lotan

RESORT 2023

Cliché as it sounds, it’s true that some things never go out of style. At Nili Lotan, ’70s rock and roll is definitely one of them. For resort, the Israeli-born, New York-based designer let the decade inform her eveningwear-driven collection. “Everyone is indulging and going to parties and celebrating life now,” she said during a preview. “And I want to provide for that.”

Her customer’s social calendar must be stacking up. The collection delivers a comprehensive wardrobe for the holiday season, grounded mainly in evening looks and day to evening styles. Sharply tailored double-breasted jackets in velvet, wool suiting, and leather paired with fitted silk blouses and flared jeans and trousers drive the collection. A run of slip dresses round out the story and give the lineup movement.

Lotan chose gold as her accent for the season, punctuating with details like buttons, lurex yarns in her knits, and embroidery. Most striking was a collarless tailored jacket, fully beaded in golden tube beads. Worn shirt- and bra-less and paired with jeans, it spoke to the way Lotan envisions her woman getting dressed.
