Closet Envy: Tracy Reese

Closet Envy: Tracy Reese by Alexandra Phanor-Faury Contemporary women’s designer Tracy Reese has been creating some of the most precious and beautiful clothes since launching her ready-to-wear line in 1998, so you can just picture this top designer’s closet. It should come as no surprise that the woman behind the ultra-feminine line, which boast fans like Jennifer Lopez and Michelle Obama, has a personal wardrobe that mirrors the chic and playful aesthetic her name has come to represent. Reese gravitates to pretty and feminine pieces and celebrates her womanly charm by sticking to dresses. The Parson School of Design alum’s busy schedule doesn’t leave her much time to concoct looks in the morning, therefore she grabs one of her great looking dresses to save time. While Reese may design a meticulously cut pair of trousers, she's hardly ever seen in pants or jeans. Modern sheaths, vintage frocks, blooming prints full-skirt dresses all share space in Reese’s fashionable closet. Stones, metallic, lace and accordion pleating are arresting details which Reese looks to when picking a statement-making dress. She loves to throw on a belt over her dresses to add shape to her silhouette. Reese unflinching elegance is modern and fresh while still deeply rooted in classic feminity. Here, are some of Tracy Reese’s unabashedly feminine pieces we crave.
