The LiNNY Dictionary: Our Core Collection

A reference guide to the iconic silhouettes and signature styles that define Lindsay Nicholas New York.

JOAN DRESS

Named after the remarkable Joan Nicholas, the Joan Dress is more than a signature LiNNY silhouette — it’s a tribute to a woman whose life embodied strength, sophistication, and effortless style. Much like its namesake, the Joan Dress radiates refined confidence and modern femininity. Crafted from crisp 100% cotton poplin, it features a collared V-neckline, short puff sleeves that can be styled for subtle volume or added drama, and a beautifully tiered A-line silhouette that moves with ease. Side pockets add practicality, while the self-tie belt offers versatility — cinch it for a more defined waist or wear it loose for bohemian simplicity. Available in Black, White, and Khaki — and offered in both mini and maxi lengths — the Joan Dress is designed for the woman who does it all without compromising on elegance. From boardroom meetings and gallery afternoons to dinners out and weekend escapes, Joan adapts effortlessly to every moment.

ELIZABETH SUITING

The Elizabeth Suit Collection is LiNNY’s definitive expression of modern tailoring — powerful, precise, and intentionally feminine. Crafted in Melbourne from Italian-spun tropical-weight wool, these pieces are designed for the woman who dresses with purpose and moves with confidence. Seasonless in construction and timeless in attitude, Elizabeth Suiting transitions effortlessly from boardroom leadership to evening receptions, from everyday sophistication to nontraditional ceremonies. The collection centers around the Elizabeth Jacket, a single-breasted silhouette featuring slimline lapels, self-covered buttons, and functional welt pockets — all fully lined in our signature prints, a subtle detail that embodies LiNNY’s quiet-luxury craftsmanship. Coordinating trousers and tailored shorts offer versatile styling options, allowing you to build a full suiting look or mix these pieces with silk shells, refined knits, or tailored separates.

NEWBURY TRENCH

The Newbury Trench is a classic with a twist: a refined trench coat designed for minimalists who love timeless structure with subtle drama. Our Newbury is crafted in a lightweight, luxe silk-wool blend with thoughtful tailoring and side-button paneling that can be styled to create a multitude of silhouettes. The Newbury Trench is unlined and layers beautifully over dresses, suiting, denim, and eventwear, making it a year-round essential from Dallas to Melbourne to New York. It is, simply, the trench you’ll own for decades.

ALLY PANT

Named for our COO, Ally, The Ally Pant embodies the perfect balance of polish, power, and practicality. This sleek, sculptural silhouette is crafted from a structured scuba fabric that offers impeccable shape with just the right amount of stretch — allowing it to move with you while maintaining its clean, tailored lines. Designed to command attention without ever feeling overdone, The Ally Pant features a subtle flare, front-facing slits, and an elongating profile. Whether you’re navigating back-to-back meetings, dashing to the airport, or heading out for dinner, this is the not-so-basic essential that adds quiet edge to your minimalist wardrobe. Available in seasonal tones and classic black, The Ally Pant is a core LiNNY piece — sophisticated, versatile, and undeniably modern.

THE MARCIA OVERSIZED SHIRT

The Marcia Oversized Shirt is a hero in the wardrobes of many LiNNY staff members — inspired by a longtime client whose signature look blends relaxed structure with quiet, confident style. Crafted from crisp, 100% cotton poplin, this elevated essential delivers the perfect oversized fit: relaxed in proportion, refined in attitude, and endlessly versatile. Wear it loose for an easy, off-duty aesthetic or tuck it into tailored trousers or a sleek skirt for polished minimalism. Designed to function year-round, it’s breathable, lightweight, and timeless, making it a foundational piece in the minimalist luxury wardrobe.
