Third Time's The Charm For Gap's CFDA Collaboration

Two years ago they did women's white tees, and last year menswear and jewelry, but the new winners of the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund have been tasked with a much greater challenge for their Gap collaboration: give the brand's staple khaki a much needed reinvention.

And if the Design Editions collection is any indication, you'll need to fall into the Gap before it sells out. Designers Alexander Wang, Vena Cava (design team Lisa Mayock ad Sophie Buhal), and Albertus Swanepoel bring the best of their unique aesthetics to classic Gap pieces with spectacular results.

Our faves below:

1. An edgy-but-wearable dress - click here to see why we love it.

2. Winner Alexander Wang outdid himself with this Khaki Moto-Trench Jacket ($88). It's spot-on for this season's cropped jacket trend, and the assymetric zip and epaulettes are just some details that give it a more urban feel.

3. Runner-up Albertus Swanepoel created a few cute styles of khaki hats, but I particularly liked this Button-Trimmed Khaki Hat ($39.50) for its preppy twist on a safari topper. The topstitching complements the tortoise shell buttons and it looks a lot more expensive than its Gap-worthy pricetag.
