Just Cruising






When I see bright colours, all pretty in a row, I think of fabulous holiday wear and fun outside in the sun. Some designers didn't disappoint, colour was in abundance, and it's been a refreshing turn to avoid black this season, the future's looking very bright indeed.
Lela Rose has got the garden covered. The collection wasn't as tight as others of her have been, there were a few curve balls that I couldn't quite distinct from the story she was telling, but colours and textures were captivating none the less.
Marc Jacobs, the master of picking the season and navigating it to a tee, gave us a preppy mix of silk, cashmere and full skirted silhouettes.
DKNY is the kid sister of Donna Karan's eponymous label, however the two collections were light years apart. All sporty and urban, her handwriting through this range was evident, and the formula true to form.
Sarah Jessica Parker's favourite label (and pet project), Halston gave us interesting shapes here and there, but not enough to keep me interested for long. This piece is typically Carrie Bradshaw and had to be included if for no other reason than that.
And finally, the beauty and elegance of Jason Wu's gowns may have attracted the likes of Michelle Obama and Diane Kruger on countless occasions, but this stunning gown, one of many, I'm sure will keep young Hollywood in pure delight for the season to come.
Quite contrary.
