Yeah, yeah. Sex sells. But the low-rise-jean-peeping-
thong look leaves a lot to be desired. (Too much, even.)

Whatever happened to leaving a little something to the imagination?

Designer Robert Geller agrees. His new line, Harald, brings old-school sexiness back. Geller’s first women’s collection is a mix of button-up tops and below-the-knee skirts perfect for a modern tea party. And although the color scheme is somewhat muted (think violet, rose, and gray), the line is hard to miss.

A RISD grad, Geller interned with Marc Jacobs before striking out on his own. And it shows: Pleating, pin-tucking, and piping on seams make each piece extra special. Yet there’s nothing stiff about the line. Geller uses flowy fabrics like silk charmeuse, cotton voile, and paper-thin jersey to give it all a worn-in feeling.

And that’s the clothes we’re talking about, not you.
