The look was a softer, summery white with plenty of linen, eyelet and macrame Alexander Wang used it in a modern way, while Jill Stuart went clean and polished. Cynthia Rowley and Vivienne Tam turned to a soft ivory.
It seems the warrior muse that stormed the runway through the darkest days of the economic meltdown is ready to plan a vacation, relax and plan a sunny future.
Wang, named earlier this year as the top womenswear designer by the Council of Fashion Designers of America, is moving his downtown customer into more tweaked classics, instead of going for the shock factor.
He worked a construction motif into these deconstructed looks: Coverall straps crisscrossed on the backs of loose, smocklike dresses; there were stiff canvas carpenter's jackets and pants, and industrial materials like Tyvek and what looked like silver insulation. White paint was in the models' hair, and the slashes of rose gold here and there were meant to evoke duct tape.I really loved the finale of ivory, mint, and terra-cotta pieces.
