Derek Lam began his career at Michael Kors; accordingly, his clothes echo Kors' desire to reinvent American sportswear without making it too scary or directional. Lam's silhouettes are precise and sharp, and he often chooses stiffer fabrics that hold their shape rather than mold to the wearer's body.
Recently expanded to include both Fall/ Winter and Spring/Summer ready-to-wear, the Lam brand also launched a resort-wear collection that brings his love of classic shapes and pretty patterns to sundresses and silk robes.
