Nanette Lepore
Nanette certainly picked an incredible color palette for her spring 2009 collection. It's as if she selected only the juiciest of both warm and cool tones. While bright shades of poppy, lime, and turquoise popped, they were also contrasted with rich olives and chocolates. Each design was quite flirty and unmistakably girly with the use of over-sized ruffles and flouncy hemlines.
Matthew Williamson
I must admit that this is the first time I'm head over heels for every single piece that walked in a runway show. Matthew Williamson summed up all that is sexy, sweet, and chic. The fabrics...the textures...the amazzzzing prints...all of it was just delicious! He developed some powerfully intricate patterns that ranged from geometric, to abstract florals, to psychedelic starbursts. Oh, and the embroidery detailing...just lovely!
Monique Lhuillier
I love Monique Lhullier for her ability to keep elegance alive and looking fresh. When asked about her spring 2009 collection, she said "it's about tropical-island getaway, but for the chic Monique woman." Her designs consisted of the lightest, most delicate fabrics, silk and chiffon. Each gown flowed like water as the model walked down the runway. Various extravagant neckline styles appeared in her spring collection including a sheer chiffon encased in crystal embellishments and a keyhole draping over a gold encrusted circle neck. Along side the light creams and beiges were hints of mango, butterscotch, and tropical ocean blue.
I'm am 100% embracing this movement towards complex prints and bright pops of color.
