Style and Designers
Incorporating a more casual business style, the collections consist of simple, quiet, "uncomplicated and unassuming" suits, coats, shirts, blouses, skirts, pants, sweaters, shoes, and accessories with clean silhouettes made of fine materials. Even though the clothes "have virtually no profile, in part because they are often intentionally nondescript" and are hence "almost impossible to identify" the label still attracts a cult-like following amongst fashion conscious consumers.Retail prices range from about $200 for blouses, shirts and pants to $300 for summer dresses and $500 for blazers, for example.

Famous quotes containing the words style and, style and/or designers:
“All my stories are webs of style and none seems at first blush to contain much kinetic matter.... For me “style” is matter.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“The habit some writers indulge in of perpetual quotation is one it behoves lovers of good literature to protest against, for it is an insidious habit which in the end must cloud the stream of thought, or at least check spontaneity. If it be true that le style c’est l’homme, what is likely to happen if l’homme is for ever eking out his own personality with that of some other individual?”
—Dame Ethel Smyth (1858–1944)
“The designers [of the 1930s] were populists, you see; they were trying to give the public what it wanted. What the public wanted was the future.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
