Melitta Baumeister is crafting clothes for the self-made woman:
For all of last year’s predictions of widespread strife for the fashion industry, we’ve heard a heartwarmingly large number of stories about emerging designers demonstrating dynamism in the face of the unknown and seeing their businesses flourish due to their efforts. One such example is Melitta Baumeister. “I really can’t complain too much,” concedes the German-born designer, speaking over the phone from her New York studio.
Even with the more purposefully “ready-to-wear” pieces, this sculptural bent remains a connecting thread. A clinging, ribbed knit column dress juts out into a hooped hem, wool felt coats are jauntily buttoned and cut creating sensual undulations in the cloth, and an otherwise prim square-shouldered blazer with shrunken lapels breaks out into a downpour of knee-skimming silken strands at the bust.
Still, loungewear for AW21? Wasn’t this meant to be the season of going out out? Well, sure, but it’s worth noting that, for many of us, a year spent dressing solely for comfort’s sake has formed habits that are pretty hard to break. Rest assured, chintzy nylon tracksuits are nowhere to be found here.
