Just Admiring the Resort 09 Collections A Few Favourites

Just Admiring the Resort 09 Collections A Few Favourites


Even though the Resort collections are becoming more and more important, they dont seem to have the directional importance that greatly infleunce trends. But the clothes are usually also a lot more practical and relateable. So this year I actually looked through most of the collection on style.com and picked out my favourite outfits:

3.1 Phillip Lim
As usual, his collection is very loveable. Most of the clothes look so young, modern and perfect for people who have the parties to go to (and the money to spend.)

These day dresses are so cute. I love the colour combinations -of the jacket with the navy dress and of the light green dress with the dark green belt. Im really loving the long jacket with mini dress combination at the moment.

Phillip Lims cocktail dresses never disappoint. They look so customer-friendly and imagine if you had loads of events to attend about town, then the dresses look like theyll be suitable for so many dresses.

Nina Ricci
Everything is so delicate and so etheral looking (-maybe its just the models,) with a bit of edge.

Lanvin
The Lanvin collection was great to ooh and ahh over as usual, but theres a bit too much of eveningwear and expensive dresses to truly imagine them being worn by myself in real life. I love the loose-fitting, silk, white jacket with those large pockets (on the right.) Its so casual yet cool and luxurious at the same time.

There were a lot of sharp colours, as expected from Lanvin, although it seems to be the general trend for next year too, especially yellow and orange.

OK, this post is obviously not so much of a fashion analysis post and more of a ooh-this-is-so-pretty post. These clothes somehow look so much cooler and more modern than this seasons floral dresses.

Just Admiring the Resort 09 Collections Stella McCartney

Just Admiring the Resort 09 Collections Stella McCartney


While I was looking for more to blog for about the Resort 09 collections, Ive suddenly come to realise that with so many collections a year, the whole flipping through style.com thing really isnt as fun or exciting as before now. While the clothes are still pretty, I just cant get through all the looks for the very long Resort collections, like Chanel, Dior and DvF. And honestly, none of the collections completely grabbed my attention -that is until I saw Stella McCartneys collection.

Admittedly, I was surprised I liked it so much since I usually feel so-and-so about her designs, but theres just something I really liked about this collection. Maybe because her presentation was so refreshing -it wasnt on a typical runway, and it was set outdoors without the usual overdone glam and setup. Everything looked so natural. You can really imagine through the park and in the city in these clothes. They have just the right touch of put-together casualness and stylishness.


The double-breasted jacket with skinny pants combo is nothing new but it looks young and super sleek here. And Im usually not a fan of jumpsuits but it looks oddly cool and glamorous and again, sleek.


These two dresses are so cute and look so easy to wear. I like how the designs are special enough to make the person to look different but not too out-there. Plus the colours are so sharp.


One of the key elements to the effortless casual and sleek look: neutral colours. Ok, so most of us out here cant actually fit into those tight Capri or carry off those loose, tight-at-the-ankles pants, but they look so cool on the models. And I love the androgynous of the tops.


Imagine walking in the city in these outfits next summer (or if you can replicate them, this summer) -uber-stylishness! Ive got to figure out a way to imitate the outfit on the right -its such an amazing combination of girliness -the loose, bow tie blouse -and androgynous -the long blazer.


What did you think of the Stella McCartney collection? Which Resort collection was your favourite?
