Let’s just call it the seven-year itch.
No, not the infamous extramarital wandering eye. The unsettling sense of malaise caused by a wardrobe with even less turnover than the British monarchy.
Shake things up with clothing line Ports 1961. The name pays tribute to the year it launched, but the designs have undergone extensive overhauls annually since its inception.
Falling somewhere between sleek eveningwear and everyday basics, the complex garments come in colors with even more perplexing names like Nu, Gris, and Romarin. Favorite offerings this season include the simple cashmere and cotton mini, elegant silk pullover with tie sleeves, and a luxurious cropped jacket made from a mix of cotton and wool.
A few pieces from this collection are sure to put a new spin on those old threads.
Hey, it beats starting from scratch.
Available at The Shak, 500 Crescent Court, Uptown (214-871-3641). To see styles, go to ports1961.com.
