Background on Hengst: Susan Hengst’s innovative line of clothing hails from the Mission district of San Francisco.

Color Palette: All colors–the bolder, the better.
Silhouettes: Arabian-inspired pants and culottes; shirred jersey separates; sporty windsuits.

Accessories Report:
Belts in gold rope or leather, cinched with a geode belt buckle;
