The spring 2023 Tanner Fletcher collection is here. See every look:
It was all about the Spring Fling at Tanner Fletcher earlier this week when the label showed its new collection at a prom themed presentation in the West Village. The space was decorated with vignettes showcasing a progression of what would take place during an idyllic prom night: getting ready, posing for couple images, a bit of dancing, a bit of punch, and some post party sleepovers.
Tanner Richie and Fletcher Kasell started their label during the pandemic; the pair are both business and romantic partners. This was their second showcase at New York Fashion Week, and for such a young label they have an acute awareness of their aesthetic and the opportunity and constraints it presents. The pair tend to complete each other’s sentences and have a thing for wearing matching outfits, often by their own label.
Richie and Kasell also find inspiration in interior design, which explains the retro wood paneling that was translated into a seasonal print in tailoring and the florals that looked lifted straight from curtains or couches of the ’70s. These worked best when they were employed unusually, as in a silky tie or printed over clear sequins in a tailored suit or a camp collar button down and shorts.
Some highlights from spring included denim, such as jeans with embroidered details or denim with diagonal crystal stripes, and pieces on the sexier side, like a tiny squinted slip dress or a sheer black set. There’s opportunity here for the designers to explore a sexier—albeit still intrinsically queer—edge to the collection that still feels aligned to their whimsy design ethos.
Richie and Kasell have a primness to their work that is offset by their humor and quirk. Their slogans continue to get funnier season after season: A “delusions of grandeur” sweater and a “spoiled brat” baby tank added a satirical tone that the more serious parts of the collection benefited from. As the duo moves forward, the trick will be to continue to find the balance between retro nostalgia and their more contemporary work.
