Partow has never been into overtly sexy or body-con silhouettes, and often scales up her proportions. But here, that volume was more convincing than in seasons past. Loose-cut dresses collapsed around the body, and generous coats had hidden boning for a more defined waist. Those details will appeal to the woman searching for a female designer to fill the space in her wardrobe previously occupied by Phoebe Philo; plenty of brands have been heralded as “new-gen Céline,” but few have the thoughtfulness of Partow’s work.
