Steven Cutting’s design philosophy of fit, fashion, and function guided his design of this ensemble. The silk iridescent ruffles on the leather jacket provide a delicate, fashionable accent to the hard structure of both the jacket and the pants. Before becoming an FIT professor, he worked for brands such as Krizia, Perry Ellis, and Beyoncé’s House of Dereon.
