Designer for Houghton, Katharine Polk decided to bring a feminine take on military influences for her Fall 2015 collection. With deep greens, navy, and black, metal buttons, and shoulder pads, the collection serves as a kind of homage to the military. The designs are feminine and subtle, yet strong and confident.
