Since 2018, designer Christian Juul Nielsen has been modernizing the house codes of Hervé Léger.
For resort, Juul Nielsen continued to elevate signature body-con, bandage and fringed looks with inspiration stemming from his Danish roots (specifically, the heritage and tradition of glass blowing in the small island of Bornholm). An abstract, nature-inspired jacquard (in both bright — lime and red — and tonal colorways) alluded to the idea most prominently.
However, the presence of drapey fringes, jewel tones and shimmering metallics, and the use of velveteen chenille and heavy-gauge knits, leaned heavily into the season’s holiday spirit. There was a gilded bandage dress with draped fringe bust, a fully fringed and tiered golden number, a strong one-shoulder silver dress with pointelle detail, a dark purple mini with chenille striped inserts and detached sleeves, and color- and fabric-blocked matching ribbed and heavy-gauge knit sets and dresses in dark and light blue. The use of sensual cutouts and gilded hardware further elevated drapey, body-hugging knit jersey numbers.
