“THE WAVE”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…………..” THE WAVE”……was a detail I created for jackets, tops, skirts and dresses. Each style line for each garment was hand drawn on the muslin while Jac was wearing it to make sure the placement and the “look” was correct……Christy, at the extreme left, is wearing a three piece crepe outfit….all bordered in BLACK…..The Pink elongated jacket is worn over the Wave shell which has a wavy neckline and bottom hem. She’s wearing it over a Pink skirt with a black border at the hem…..At the top center is Yasmeen in the solid wave crepe jacket over an Ivory crepe Wave dress…..Below her is Christy in the solid Black Wave crepe dress version………At the extreme right, Ludmila is wearing the elongated, buttonless wave jacket in Lilac crepe, over a solid Wave Black crepe shell and an Ivory crepe skirt with a Wave hemline bordered in black crepe…….Bold contrast borders became an important message on the Spring 1992 collection.

“SOLID BOUCLE JACKETS & SKIRT”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

………………I have always loved ALL different types of BOUCLE fabrics. The different textures, mixtures of yarns to create different effects, and thicknesses are endless…..For my Spring 1992 collection I dyed this fine, and light weight BOUCLE in many colors of the collection……here are four of them…..On the left Yasmeen in the Pink boucle jacket with the pink georgette pleated skirt which has a satin band at the bottom……Christy in the Lilac boucle jacket over the matching pleated skirt…..Ludmila in the Mint boucle jacket, again over the pleated georgette skirt with the satin border…..and at the extreme right, Ludmila in the Lime Boucle jacket and skirt……Fortunately, I was even able to find some beautiful boucle fabrics for my Linea QVC collection. I had to constantly search for new boucle fabrics as the prices kept going up from one year to the next….but I always managed to find beautiful fabrics I could afford……Of course at Anne Klein price was never an issue!

“THE CONFETTI FRENCH TWEEDS”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…………………..I chose two color combinations for the “CONFETTI TWEEDS” I developed with the French company…Tissage Des Chaumes……One of the combinations was primarily PINK and YELLOW, but sprinkled through out was a fancy yarn that had multi color nubs…..The second coloration was primarily LIME with an AQUA/MINT, and again it was sprinkled with a fancy yarn with multi color nubs in a totally different color combination from the Pink/Yellow tweed……They were woven in a soft plaid, and a tweed plain fabric was also made for skirts……..Each of the jackets was bound in a solid, very fine wool crepe from Italy. The Wool Crepe also was made into garments…….I also mixed the tweeds with Denim, leather, stretch lace, cotton shirts and knitwear. I had special jewelry and jeweled belts made by our licensee, and every once in a while I have noticed a piece will show up on Ebay. They must have an Anne Klein Couture metal small tag for authenticity, and they are usually quite expensive. Of course all the footwear coordinated with the collection and was made in Italy by our AK licensee.
