Quote of note: “It’s color therapy, ” vice president of design Shawn Reddy explained. “It effects us so much and triggers an emotional feeling,” adding that his team sees dressing for the office as a more expressive experience than before the pandemic.

Key pieces: A classic yellow trenchcoat, knit updates like printing sweater ribbing( a new technique) or casual double-layer sweater, a mix of leather separates — skirts, a moto jacket. The denim offering has expanded to 12 styles, a smart move for a brand known for its pant offering. A standout quilted knit puffer, along with a sequined jacket perfect for wearing over the holiday dress.

The takeaway: Unfussy and joyful, Lam has his staples — suiting, pants, prints, shirtdresses — but every season tweaks them adding yet another reason for his customer to buy. This season the emotive color, was a call to action that is sure to make his customer pull out her credit card.
