Graphic Tee, Serious Bag: River Klein's Off-Duty Formula

When the shoot ends, the model, who has worked for both Calvin Klein and Coach, dresses in a loose, slightly undone style with clear roots in the 1990s. It rests on two things: Hysteric Glamour T-shirts, the Japanese label's graphic cotton worn casually, and handbags from serious design houses carried with real precision. The appeal is the contrast between a tee that looks lived-in and a bag that's flawless. It's a formula that would look just as right on a downtown New York block as on a Los Angeles coffee run, and anyone who loves a good archive will spot the decade right away.
