Derek Lam had plenty on his mind this afternoon at the Sean Kelly Gallery. "I always hear that women designers design for themselves. But so do I. I want longer legs, I want thinner arms," he said by way of introducing a pair of super-high-waisted white flares. The Lam silhouette for Resort was slimmer, less round than it has been in recent seasons—a point driven home by those floor-scraping trousers. The grey knitwears worn with minimal suits and trousers. Printed dresses looked like modern art."People say I love the seventies, but the year I think I really love is 1966." Why? Because in addition to it being his birth year, '66 was the turning point between "madame couture" and the dawn of sportswear.
