Tory Burch’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection focuses on bright colours – citrons, blues and corals, specifically – as well as patterns and detailing, such as fringed hemlines. Though very lively, it was at the same time, subtle enough not to be too distracting and great for warm weather-related events such as garden parties and luncheons on […]
Carolina Herrera never stops pleasing the more sophisticated crowd. Her Spring/Summer 2013 collection, which has, according to a Tweet just prior to the show, “timeless influence,” definitely lived up to that. With gorgeous, colourful prints as well as neutrals, these looks are bound to look great at next season’s weddings, summer fundraisers and other social […]
Presented as an installation on Saturday, this debut collection by former J.Crew designer, Marissa Webb, is definitely influenced by her experience with the company. Artsy, yet preppy (but not really “bohreppy” (Boho Prep)), the spring/summer 2013 looks include brightly coloured pieces, basic blacks and whites (including a white fit and flare dress that could be […]
Warm weather-friendly brightly coloured pieces mixed with whites dominate Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection. In addition, tends that were “it” in 2012 continue next season, including patterned pants. Though many of the pieces, especially the more flowy looks and soft, comfortable shorts, signal those who are young, fun and carefree – boho, if you will. […]
What I love about Nanette Lepore is her constant use of bright, bold colours, no matter the season. There was very little black or grey and in general, the collections tend to arguably be predictable, but one can’t help but love the fact her use of colours just brighten up a dark winter day. There […]
Always with a touch of preppiness, Tory Burch’s Fall/Winter 2012-2013 collection is no exception. Gorgeous deep reds and greens team up with blacks, greys and a touch of blue and shine for the upcoming season. Also included were the floral detailing found in many of the looks, something that is more often seen for spring […]
With a theme of 1960s London, going into the disco era of the 1970s, Betsey Johnson’s Fall/Winter 2012 collection opens with a short video of girls screaming at who’s presumably The Beatles. The collection was full of bright colours, miniskirts, floppy hats, chunky sweater dresses and po’boy caps we see a typical Betsey production of […]
Some may call Hervé Léger by Max Azria the same old, season after season. After all, bandage dresses are bandage dresses, right? Wrong! The Fall/Winter collection was definitely something. From warrior and equestrian-inspired pieces on dresses to fringes and a not-so subtle sophisticated biker look, the collection is definitely on the wish lists of many […]
Rebecca Minkoff’s Fall/Winter 2012 collection was all about the bling without going too far. The collection consisted of a wide range of different looks, ranging from biker jackets to blazers, ankle-length pants, mini-dresses and winter shorts, models strutted down with the runway to a live performance with confidence reminiscent of the supermodel era of the […]
So New York’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week started yesterday, presenting collections for the upcoming Fall/Winter 2012 season. As with previous seasons, many of the shows were streamed online, including BCBGMaxAzria. Though I really like the colour blocking, palette and found the designs to be better than past seasons, the skirt lengths, as usual, were really more […]
