Of course, Old World interpretations were given modern updates through exaggerated draped sleeves, fluid off-the-shoulder treatments, and imaginative front slits. “There’s a certain formality and a certain grandeur,” Biljana offered. “But hopefully—hopefully in a new way. Deconstructed but still constructed.”
