Sachin & Babi Spring 2020 Ready-to-Wear

Sachin and Babi Ahluwalia might reside on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, but the designer couple does their fair share of travel throughout the year. Maybe it was on the shores of St. Barth’s or the rues of Paris where they found some inspiration for their Spring 2020 collection, which is brimming with vacation wear for women of every age. Over the past two years, the Ahluwalias have greatly expanded their daywear offering, building out an essential category of easy dresses. They really struck gold for Spring with balloon-sleeved midi styles, itty ruffled minis, and a tiered gingham tank dress in shades of navy that would make for a perfect Positano #OOTD. (An even better version of that frock in gradated panels of caramel, vermilion, and rust didn’t make it into the lookbook.) The big question here is whether the kind of Insta-babes that trade in daily mirror selfies will be wise enough to pick up on a brand that for a long time was associated with evening attire and the ladies who wear it.
