It is refreshing to see clothes that can actually be worn, let alone that do not require an explanation for their genesis!
Frederick Anderson is primarily a knit collection, hand crocheted in Argentina with imported laces and fabrics from European but all made in the USA...so much for explanation.
I see this as sort of a cross between haute hippie and boho chic with a little lunch lady thrown in… it is all in how one puts it together and a frame of reference but I can’t shake the memories of the heady 60s and 70s given some of the crocheted pieced pieces and then into the softly tailored black and whites made from that exquisitely delicate tweed like fabric. The laces, if you know anything of lace, are quite apparently of the finest available.
It is possible the styling might have swayed my thinking but I always try to divorce any of the noise with the clothes ... at any rate it is a collection with multiple appeal and sure to find its way into the closets of women of all ages.
