Series No. 23 Launch: ESSENCE
In this Year of the Dragon, our focus is manifesting confidence and optimism through simplicity. Black and white with touches of gold, Series No. 23 embodies powerful, dynamic essences—Yin and Yang, contrast and harmony, geometry and fluidity.
Series No. 23 is particularly special because though we approach every collection at Lan Jaenicke with a reverence for craftsmanship, this offering is predominantly made to order at the Atelier. Like our classic Peony Dress, in a floor-length form (above). Lan designed the custom, deconstructed houndstooth pattern, which reads like calligraphic characters from a sutra. A supremely sophisticated and poetic dress for summer. The Peony is also zero-waste, as are most pieces in the collection.
Hand Pleated Column Dress in Gold Japanese Wool Gauze, Black Cotton Silk Voile, and reversible Custom Houndstooth Stripe
“Like a fluted Grecian column, this elegantly seductive dress elongates and animates form. The flowing, pleated, open-back design adds allure.”
Dress Coat in Japanese Wool Gauze Undyed and Gold
The undyed wool gauze Dress Coat is an elegant, versatile piece that can be worn buttoned-up as a shirt-dress, or open as a flowing summer coat. The breezy yet substantial Japanese wool gauze is like wearing a cloud, in luminous, billowing white, and solid brass buttons add a jewel-like touch. Also available in Gold and Black.
Gorgeous separates in black and white interweave to create endless possibilities that marry strength and grace.
The Custom Shuimo Painting Dress
In this collection we also feature the artistry of our friend, James Buckhouse: the Custom Shuimo Painting Dress features his brushwork printed on satin organza.
“We’re also delighted to debut our very first hat, a chic cloche in two luxe materials that create a wonderfully distinct silhouette.”
