Shopping for seasonal clothing can be as frustrating as dropping a fresh scoop of ice cream on the ground, yet the Jason Wu Resort 2016 collection hopes to change that predicament. If retailers insist on stocking fall and winter items in the summer and vice versa, he's determined to introduce such items into what should be a hot weather-focused line of clothing.
From dramatic fur jackets to loose pantsuits and even the odd strappy cocktail dress, the Jason Wu Resort 2016 collection is versatile enough for almost any time of the year. As for the overall designs themselves, Style.com notes, "In recent seasons, Wu has worked to elevate his aesthetic.[...] Several collections in, the polish of his pared-back tailoring, seen on a Le Smoking and on sheath dresses, is completely convincing."
