There’s nothing glamorous or romantic about late July in New York City. It’s hot, it smells like garbage, and you can’t step outside for two seconds without whatever you’re wearing becoming drenched in sweat. Interior’s Lily Miesmer and Jack Miner are familiar with this, and so designed their pre-fall, (aka high summer) collection around dressing for those days when you’d rather not be wearing anything at all. It’s a bit of a departure from the “woman-on-the-brink” aesthetic they’ve established since launching their brand in 2021, though “on-the-brink” is an apt description for just about anyone who has suffered through a 100 degree day on a subway platform in New York City.
For the most part, everything is engineered to be light and airy, or at least to give the impression of lightness and airiness. Cotton poplin pajama-like pants are paired with a matching v-neck blouse. Two pairs of boxers appear in the collection, one in white cotton and the other in white lace; a pale gray chiffon dress (made to look like washed, semi-destroyed chiffon rather than picture-perfect, special occasion chiffon) resembles a sheet wrapped around the body, almost like a towel. A beaded mesh evening gown—an early signature of the brand—makes an appearance in an even lighter shade of gray. A bubble-hem mini dress is so buoyant it looks ready to pop.
Despite the transparency throughout the collection, Interior is conscious of designing for women who stay in the city throughout the summer and who have jobs that likely require them to be covered. Ergo, two suits—one in tan and one in a shade of blue-green. The tan one has a shirt’s cuffs and hems buttoned into it to give the illusion of wearing a dress shirt. One less layer to worry about.
