Spring 12: Chris Benz

Chris Benz's new line combines large-scale whimsical ethnic prints with smaller scale florals and hand-drawn plaids to create a fun and varied collection. Big hair and eighties accessories only add to the cheekiness.

Spring 11: Stripes

Prada, Louise Gray, Marc Jacobs, Chris Benz, Tsimori Chisato

Stripes came in all many shapes and sizes this season. Many were bold, graphic and solid (Prada, Marni, Louise Gray, Cynthia Rowley,) some nautical (Tsimori Chisato,Clements Ribeiro) and others like Marc Jacobs and Chris Benz were inspired by 70's and 50's vintage respectively. And Kenzo also showed softened stripes on his Japanese textiles.
