The Kors aesthetic is one of beguiling luxury, and his Celine line--with its dramatic but unfussy suits, plush cashmere turtleneck sweaters, buttery leather coats and simply cut beaded gowns--is meant for the woman more than pleased with her mutual-fund performance but not about to make a big show of it.
