To rehash: He has been off the fashion scene since leaving Emanuel Ungaro as creative director in 2009. And if you loved his 17-piece line for the luxury retailer, you&amp;#039;ll be excited to know that this round, he is debuting 23 new looks today. The offering, which was done in collaboration with Net-A-Porter&amp;#039;s fashion director Holli Rogers, includes dresses, skirts, tops, jackets, shoes, and jewelry. &amp;quot;The idea from the beginning was for the collection to be trans-seasonal and work throughout the year, in different countries and climates globally, and for every piece to be versatile and translate easily from day to night,&amp;quot; said Cortazar in a press release.    &amp;quot;There are lots of sporty separates that are great for layering which can be transformed into different looks by removing some of the layers, changing the accessories, shoes or adding some of my jewelry to give everything a tougher or more sophisticated edge.&amp;quot; He also explained how his designs have evolved: &amp;quot;This collection is very much an evolution from the first, and explores the dichotomy between the sensual gestures of the female form and lines and angles that frame the body. The use of razor blade cuts creates a subtle motion, evoking the elegant and graceful movements of a manta ray and the tranquility and strength of Tadao Ando spaces, which inspired this collection. It&amp;#039;s a reaction towards the madness and noise around us.&amp;quot; Intrigued? Check out some of our favorite styles here, and then shop the looks online.
