Wall Street woes and rough-and-tumble politics aside, the Custo Barcelona coat collection at Isle of You provides a fearless feast of tough-built looks. Slick vinyl, felted wool, and roughed-up velvet impose a certain bravura when tailored into trenches, jackets, and bat-winged dresses. As usual, the Custo design team melds their geometric and tribal themes with their iconic caricatures and then superimposes textural interest with lurex shots, ropey crochet, and fur pile. Parti-colored and Mondrian-block silk linings counterpoint the subterranean palette of Custo Country. Women's coats as well as men's shirts are available for ordering through October 10th at Isle of You.
