For Ece Ege, fall and winter are the best seasons. Not because she is particularly fond of the weather, but because that’s when she can work a wider palette of fabrics and layers.

“It’s rich, beautiful and in summer, you don’t have coats, sweaters, gilets, layers,” she said, running her hand through the racks to enumerate bonded wool crepes, silk panama, mikado silks, georgette, twills and more.

Overall, “it’s always about offering solutions,” she said, a leitmotiv of the brand. Hers always lean on the dressier side, with plenty of staples like her always-popular shirtdresses and silk blouses.

This season she borrowed from menswear, drawing on the nautical and sportswear worlds. Tailored separates included high-waist sailor trousers and peacoats with gold buttons and built-in waistcoats. A boxy sweatshirt cut from the lushest jersey and finished with knit ribbing at the cuffs that came with matching pants — “but don’t go jogging with those,” she said with a laugh.

She also added a handful of denim pieces, including trousers with a veiny wash and contrasting golden yellow stitch accents on the waist and pockets. These were a recurring request of her clients and retailers, she said.

A drop of lavender came as a counterpoint to the season’s overall palette of dark neutrals — dark blues and charcoal, mainly. Drawing a parallel with pink shirts, she said the color was “fresh, inspiring and has a masculine romance.” The same could be said of her lineup.
