Falls Knitwear by Ami Kealoha
Injecting a healthy dose of sexy into the normally staid sweater category, designers Leong Ong and Phillip Leeming's line of oversized cardis, skinny camis, and mini-dresses called Falls gives a fresh and daring look to every girl's wardrobe staples. The Falls debut spring collection of '20s boudoir-inspired pieces—all made of superfine cashmeres and cottons—tests the limits of the sweater and experiments with volume, shapes, and layering. The result? Pieces that Leeming says are "wearable ten months out of the year," adding, "it's not always about keeping warm, it's about expressing a feeling of warmth."

Given the already high crime rate and D.C.'s long history of violence, this is what we call in the fashion industry a "bad idea." But who are we to second guess the judgment...
