Peter Beard s images of Africa inspired Max and Lubov Azria s travel-themed Resort collection. It s a reference that can easily feel clichéd, but to the designers credit, their interpretation was fresh. Colorful batik-printed caftans and billowy silk dresses in a rainbow of greens—chartreuse, lime, asparagus—popped against neutral separates, including great slouchy khaki shorts and lightweight cotton utility-style jackets. To complete the luxe global-nomad look: a series of white cotton shirts and tank dresses featuring tie fronts and draped skirts.
