Cashmere and color were Designer Albert Kriemler’s twin passions for the Akris Resort 2020 collection.

Against a backdrop of neutrals, his sunrise orange and cherry blossom pink shades really popped, the sunrise hue in particular. It’s harder to appreciate the appeal of his cashmere in these pictures. Though the shapes are both flattering and timely, their allure is derived first and foremost from how they feel, which as a rule is delightful, the black cashmere joggers worn with a graphic striped black-and-white poncho in particular.

“As you know,” he said, “I am very deep into the idea of building a wardrobe that works for today’s women, who balance business and life.” Kriemler is aware of how often work and life intersect for today’s women with the creation of a black blouse with glossy sequin pinstripes worn with matching sequin-striped flares in silk marocain. The effect of that outfit was dressy yet effortless, an unbeatable combination.
