TREND SPOTTING New York Fashion Week spring/summer 2011

Vera Wang showcased her spring/summer collection at New York Fashion Week and stuck to the rules...she used ruffles and pleating details to create unique silhouettes and deep coloured textiles that creates rich texture. We love the colour palette...she introduced coral floral prints on a black background that exudes drama on the runway.
Make-up was kept neutral with blushing pinks and peaches, and the 60's inspired bouffant hair-do topped the look giving it an elegant touch.

The coral colour tones and floral patterns are echoed in the dress from the adore collection (second image). We absolutely love the softness of the chiffon, keeping you cool in luxurious feeling fabrics this spring/summer. We're totally on top of the trend with this floral mini dress...the pleats create interesting layers and cinches in at the waist with a pleated waistband. Pair with flat gladiators for a casual day wear look or be inspired by Vera Wang's Look Du Jour and try a high-heeled ankle boot in black or tan! Desired look : uptown chic!
