THE PREPOSITION

Lisa Perry Evening Wear, Valentine’s Day Clutches and More Shopping News

Connoisseur of Prints

Last fall, after reading an article on Dara Caponigro, the creative director of the 125-year-old fabric company Schumacher, Lisa Perry, known for her ’60s-style shifts and Pop Art collaborations, knew immediately that she wanted to collaborate with the company on an evening-wear collection. Ms. Perry’s family owned a home-textile business, and she had long been aware of Schumacher’s celebrated prints. The 13-piece capsule collection combines Schumacher patterns with Ms. Perry’s favorite shapes. The silk gown shown here uses the Art Deco Les Gazelles au Bois print released in 1927 ($1,995). The chenille minidress is Serengeti in Tigre Blanc ($1,495). The collection will be at Lisa Perry, 988 Madison Avenue, and lisaperrystyle.com on Feb. 23.

Toe Ticklers

Alexa Chung recently posted a picture of a pair of fur-lined Birkenstocks on Instagram with a caption that read, “My feet might feel humiliated, but I would be very happy in these.” Oddly, she’s far from the only one to pick up on a look that originated with Céline’s “furkenstocks” a couple of years back. At the fall men’s shows just ended (and where Gucci paraded mink-lined scuffs), the stylist and D.J. Peggy Gould wore fur-trimmed shoes from the Seoul label Low Classic (above right); Simone Marchetti, a fashion editor at La Repubblica, wore faux fur sandals from the Italian label Ainea (above left). They may not be the prettiest things in the world, but respect those who choose comfort and a style statement. Fur continues for spring courtesy of Simone Rocha, who has taken the look to a rather chic new place with these fluffy pool slides.
