RUNWAY: Billy Reid FW14

Texture was de rigueur at Billy Reid's cozy Fall/Winter 2014 runway show today during NYFW. The setting was that of a stately lodge, complete with a fireplace that heightened the sense of intimacy and coziness of the collection. Billy Reid's men have always been the outdoorsy type and this collection seemed to be a window into what those same outdoorsy types wear after they've finished fishing or chopping up wood. They retreat into their homes, luxuriating in their comfortable but manly clothes and what's more comfortable and chic than a chunky patterned knit when the weather outside is oh-so-frightful?
