Before the show, Kors explained his mission for this collection during an interview with The Associated Press. “When the world is upside down, I think my job is to make people feel more confident. It’s that simple,” Kors said.

His mother, Joan Kors, who died last year, strongly influenced his life and career. And while her legacy remains with the designer, this time, it was his grandmother who inspired him.

Once the runway show began, the crowd was treated to an assortment of tweed jackets, double-breasted coats, slit skirts, and sequined dresses. There were cashmere turtleneck sweaters, thick eyewear, and slender bags. With a few exceptions, most designs employed a neutral color palette, with some gray and lots of black.
