think ofkatespadeandthink ofmules, cocktails, cinchwaists, and icecreamcolors. aswediscoversthedesignerandherhusbandhave built anempireonwit, whimsy, andpracticality. kate may not do the "theme" collections, but there is an overarching theme to the brand. carefully and subtly orchestrated, it imbues everything the spades do. the spade look is not retro exactly, but it is definitely evocative of a now-vanquished suburban america - that's the thing - her designs strike a familiar chord in us all. anyone who ever wore pappagallo flats (as kate did in high school) will recognize the floppy leather flower on this season's slingbacks. still, for all the references, the designs, like her own look, somehow remain modern. likewise, says kate, the wicker bags "are nostalgic, but i don't want them to look like they came from a vintage store, because then they might as well have." in her hands they're cleaner, newer - and they're selling like crazy. kate inspires the same confidence and prompts the same aspirations as martha stewart did, but with none of the bossiness and a lot more humor. she's not stern; she's someone you think you might like to have as a best friend.

"i love, love, love green," she tells me now, adding that she has always treated it as a neutral. deep pinks were among her other early signatures - one of her favorite purses is a peony-pink boarskin "quinn," now considered a kate spade classic, and her wedding line features raspberry satin shoes along with the traditional white.
