If last night's fashion show is any indication, Atelier AZZA is going to take over this city, one socialite's closet at a time. The brand's Algebra collection previewed to an AZZA-clad crowd last night. While the pieces were inspired by the very thing that had us so confused for most of middle school, the influence is subtle: In the words of Khan herself, "you won't be seeing plus signs or anything."

The line is a slightly more casual variation of AZZA's signature aesthetic—but don't prepare to part with the flouncy hems and intricate embellishments just yet. They're still very much a part of this designer's repertoire. See for yourself in the gallery below.
