Michael Kors Watches – Just in Time
By Doug Singer
Apparently Michael Kors has invented the 36-hour day. After wrapping the sixth season of the wildly successful Project Runway, he’s done it again! The Fall 2009 Michael Kors watch collection captures Michael Kors’ philosophy of old Hollywood enchantment and the Jet Set lifestyle with rich colors, exotic textures, and signature Kors detailing. Renowned for his classic, chic and luxurious but sensible aesthetic, this collection does not disappoint.
Staying true to the season, the leather collection takes center stage with a warm color palette of cream and brown hues. Equestrian-inspired North/South cases adorned with a dangling circle MK charm make their first appearance along with chic oversized cuffs with a new MK buckle. Crocodile embossed strap styles with Swarovski crystal encrusted cases lend a touch of glamour to the collection.
The sleek ceramic chronograph from the Jet Set collection makes its appearance for Fall 2009. The shiny finish is available in either glossy black or lustrous white. This must-have is perfect for a walk down the red carpet or a night on the town. A chic new three-hand Jet Set watch in silver, gold, and black IP plating with enamel-filled scalloped bezel completes this luxurious collection.
The popular Mixed Material collection plays with new forms and shapes. New jewelry-inspired tortoise styles feature round acrylic discs linked with shiny stainless steel, or for a more sophisticated look, the delicate case in the mini bracelet style evokes a feminine charm.
The clean and classic men’s collection welcomes a new maritime-inspired soft square case in all black with white indexes. Refined dials and rich leather straps with a mix of contemporary chronograph styles handsomely round out the collection.
With a celebrity rich client base including the First Lady, Michelle Obama and rave reviews, the multi-award winning Michael Kors’ latest watch collection is sure to stand the test of time.
