Adam Lippes made his fall outing an ode to Japanese iconography, inspired by a recent photography show at Boston’s Peabody Museum. And if the results sometimes approached the discordant side of versatile, many of the clothes looked great. Lippes favored vibrant colors and effects such as delicate cherry blossoms embroidered on silk and textured metallic detailing that recalled the regalia of a Samurai uniform, putting the motif to work in an upbeat sportswear context. He moved between chic dresses, whether a cream wool sheath with gold side embroideries or a perfect navy shirtdress, and colorful silk suitings, one or two of which got lost in Eighties power mode. When it came to the sportiest looks, however, there were no such strays, as pilings anchored by lush sweaters and multiple textures imparted a delightful, slightly bohemian flavor. Among the hits: a gray cardigan over a basketweave sweatshirt, floral blouse and leggings, a thick handknit sweatercoat, and a classic anorak gone wacky with iridescent navy and purple fur lining.
