Claire's Spring 2010 Favorites



This spring offers a whole new splash of new trends.
I have a few favorite collections this spring.


First, Christian Dior.
I really loved how Galliano made very classic but edgy day looks and super vamped up the evening gowns. Day looks were mostly based off of polished neutrals. The character he created was a very confident, provocative woman.


Cynthia Rowley.
It was interesting to me how her collection for spring was flowy but also had structure beneath it, whether that was achieved with a belt or a blazer. Also loved her beige lace-up booties with black stockings. Her looks were effortlessly stylish.
From style.com: "The idea is something that's both scary and pretty," Cynthia Rowley said of her Spring concept. "Things are out of focus and starting to unravel."


Lanvin.
They are always on my list of favorites. I really liked Alber Elbaz's use of drapery and pleating in the collection this spring. and the carnation candy colors paired with neutrals.


Rochas.
Marco Zanini's second collection for Rochas was very different and successful. His overload of color and prints for spring really put on a show for the audience. I fell in love with the flowered belts. I was also very excited to see lots of high-waisted garments, because that is my particular favorite trend.


And a much needed mention to Proenza Schouler's shirt-dress for spring.
amazing.
