Fall2011 Ready-to-Wear: BCBG Max Azria

Max & Lubov Azria had one singular point of view and didn't stray far from it. Their dresses had lean, simple lines with a monastic feel to them; they played with color-blocking, geometric layers and abstract prints. Bodysuits underneath each frock provided counterbalance to the lightweight layered fabrics.

Spring2011 Haute Couture Collection: Chanel

"I was sick of all those Eiffel Towers, sick of all those violent colors", so says Karl Lagerfeld explaining the direction he chose when creating his collection. With Stella Tennant opening the show and Kristen McMenamy closing, Mr. Lagerfeld showed pieces that were light and airy, sweet and youthful; choosing ballet flats over sky-high heels. His inspiration was a painting of Coco Chanel by the artist Marie Laurencin. The end result wasn't to Miss Chanel's liking, she rejected it, but it suited Mr. Lagerfeld just fine.
















Spring2011 Haute Couture Collection: Elie Saab

Floaty. Romantic. Delicate. Elie Saab's pieces have a Belle Epoque feel to them; tattered flowers combined with corseted bodices and layers upon layers of soft-as-a-whisper silk makes these dresses sexy and at the same time demure. Saab chose hues of lilac, dusty rose, crimson, spring green, cream, dove gray with a little black thrown in for good measure.
