"If the tale spun by Andrew Gn as context for his sumptuous Fall collection seemed implausible, then the idea of reworking heirloom textiles conveyed the same principle, minus the panic. Gn opened his show with a grey flannel cape fronted in undulations of passementerie, hand-knotted fringe trim, and Mongolian fur around the collar. As the show transitioned from a predominantly black palette into deep jewel tones, the accents became more distinctive: sleeves amplified with fins of organza, shoulders caped with sequined plumes, and décolletage that glimmered with floral beading. But Gn reached peak theme with a final grouping of silk satin sheaths with cocoon coats. The former featured enlarged appliqués of gingko leaves, and peonies, ad if lifted from salon wallpaper." - style.com
