It’s a beautiful thing when fabric doesn’t need to be ironed. Or dry-cleaned. Or hung in the bathroom while you take a steamy, hot shower. This is just one of the reasons we love to wear crinkled clothing. Another is comfort, especially Alembika’s elevated knits.

You may already be seeing a new crop of crinkle hit the Spring-Summer fashionverse, but Hagar Alembik, head designer of Alembika, takes these delicious styles to the next level, creating gently rumpled yet impeccably tailored designs that mix and mingle beautifully.

Now it’s a piece of cake to pull together eye-catching looks that are also wearable works of art. And comfy. And cool. And ready for you to stash in a weekender tote for spontaneous getaways. Or maybe just a nap—you’ll look refreshed and ready to roll, without a wardrobe change.

Now, let’s talk about that stunning tunic top on Katya in the first photo. The hi-lo tunic top is cut in a drop-dead gorgeous silhouette and rendered in our exclusive Ru abstract print. The finishing touch: a dramatic hi-lo hem, accentuated by contrast border trim. Mixmaster variations: The Linea Crinkle Pants shown on Katya, Ru Crinkle Punto Pants or the Crinkle Punto in solid black.

Every dress in Cool Crinkle delivers the creative style and cool comfort you expect from Alembika… Here is my top pick, mostly because I’m challenged to pick an absolute favorite and this one comes in two colorways! The Jill Crinkle Swing Dress in Mono and in Yellow. And both work with our versatile Linea Crinkle Crop Cardy in barely-there pinstripes, a softly knit layer in White and in Black.

The last featured look before you dive into the entire Cool Crinkle collection highlights our exclusive Ru abstract print in earthy Sepia. The Ru Crinkle Dolman Top features a relaxed fit, double-pocket front, contrast stripe sleeve detail and a solid black back. Ru Crinkle Punto Pants are the perfect match (one of many, actually). And, did I mention that both of these pieces also come in sunshine Yellow? Now that you’ve had a preview with a handful of editor’s picks, crinkle away!
