Resort Round Up - Part 1
Here are my favourites from the Resort 2009 collections.
Alber Elbaz surpassed himself as usual with his bright and breezy resort collection. A real feel of summer holidays made this a joy to watch. Asymmetrical draped cocktail dresses and lots of beads gave this collection a real quirky feel and something a bit different. He also had a great collaboration with Acne jeans creating all sorts of items including shoes and bags in deep dark denim.
Nicholas Ghesquiere’s 2009 resort collection for Balenciaga has carried on the underlying theme from his fall 08 collection with draped asymmetric tops and some full on minimalism with lots of above the knee straight skirts and skinny trousers.
Calvin Kleins resort 09 collection was again minimalist chic with lots of muted neutral tones. It was very wearable with interest added by the different textures.
For Resort 2009 John Galliano showed a collection of candy sweet colours with elegant draped chiffon dresses some gorgeous prints and footless tights with everything. The collection was really finished off with the colourful chunky jewellery and wedge shoes.
The electric colours of the Oscar De La Renta Resort 2009 collection were defintely memorable. This show was back in May but still stands out in my mind for its sheer colourfulness. The amazing gowns at the end were also something to remember.
