Michael Kors is known for his simple, clean lines and luxury separates. This is as true for his own label, launched in 1981, as it was during his tenure at Celine, from 1997 until October 2003. The turtleneck was a key piece in his triumphal debut collection at Celine, referenced even in evening wear.
