This season, Rosetta Getty is celebrating the 10th anniversary of her brand, and like many others who find themselves at this milestone, she was looking back at the things that had brought her to this moment. “I thought it would be good to go back and look at what my favorites are, and what are the signatures of the brand,” she explained during a presentation at her Tribeca showroom. “I noticed that a lot of the zip-up details and transformational pieces are something that we’ve had since the beginning—that sort of day-to-night, seasonless, made-for-traveling-thing—and we’ve continued with that language and that lifestyle perspective.”
The zipper details were present in a jacket with three functional zippers on the front that zipped-off in different directions; on a sleeveless shell top with slits at the chest, sternum, and stomach that also unzipped in the middle; and on a maxi skirt that zipped off into a midi skirt. The intended effect was not for things to be fully convertible, rather for the pieces to look like they were deconstructed, with panels of fabric floating this way and that way, which added a bit of an edge. This was also evident on a black mock neck top with snaps at the shoulders, that unsnapped to create an off-the shoulder silhouette, and in a knit dress with a “car wash”-style skirt.
Elsewhere there was a play in textures with semi-sheer knitted pieces layered underneath elegant slinky dresses, shearling vests, and leather pieces, which this season included a more structured cowhide along with her usual plongé. An all-over tree bark print, which looked undeniably cool on a sleek, fitted suit worn with a matching shirt.
