Her preoccupation for the past 20 years has been delivering a wardrobe for her woman. “As I move from one season to another,” Lotan said at her Tribeca studio, “it’s basically one collection that I started in 2003, 20 years of essentially the same frame of mind, looking to give a woman eclecticness within her same world.” The eclectic touch this season was a run of very cool oversized shearling coats, which fulfilled their mission of elevating this assortment.
