fashion PHOTOGRAPHY BY DANIEL LIPPITT t a recent Saks Fifth Avenue fashion show at the Somerset Collection, guests viewed the St. John cruise/spring 2001 styles. Although St. John fashions are known for their classic knitwear looks and timeless designs, the 2001 collection is fresh and less staid. "We've created dozens of bold, strik- ing, individual styles that intermix beautifully with an end result that is sometimes businesslike, often sporty, but always feminine," says designer Marie Gray. Sorbet colors like pistachio and strawberry deliver an appealing look to the St. John signature line, while ice blue leather and navy linen add pizzazz to the St. John Sport collec- tion. The evening designs sparkle and capture the sexy sophisticated looks of the collection. — Calla ,Vdtaradz
