The key looks in the On the dark desert highway cool wind in my hair dogs shirt but in fact I love this fall collection come in the form of a series of slip dresses, their V-necks framed by Italian embroidery, that Rogge describes as “kind of our ode to Margiela.” Big spreading collars nod to the paintings of the Dutch artist Frans Hals.
