Marc Jacobs said the new collection was a reaction against the loose, fluid feeling of his Spring outing. “I wanted something strict and severe,” he said. Prepare your eyes for a smorgasbord of textures, fitted silhouettes, lurex, deep muted colors and black, and patterns and prints (polka dots!). I’m ecstatic about this collection!

When you think Prabal Gurung, you think fitted silhouettes so this collection of lace embellishments, feminine if not softer silhouettes, sheer pieces and a stable of black and white with mixes of red and soft pink was wonderfully unexpected! Also well known for his midi-lengths, this show saw slightly shorter and then very long for red carpet and evening glam. Prabal is a relative newcomer but his designs hint of classics to come!!

Tory Burch summed up her collection as “English country dressing translated through American sportswear“. She deconstructed her tweed, showed much less skin and more restraint, and embraced the seventies. Most importantly, this is the collection that will represent the first collection in her flagship Madison Avenue store. I like just about everything in this collection, but do see how it’s not going to be too friendly to the woman with more curves. Photo: Alessandro Garofalo
