Vivienne Tam Spring 2011


Tousled-haired models walked in pretty, lace-crotchet looks for Vivienne Tam’s Spring 2010 collection. Short, cream-colored dresses appeared at first but then the looks went decidedly denim and progressed to island batik prints. Deep navy blues and creams were the mainstay colors and scattered geometric patterns adorned billowy harem pants and tunics. The look was easy, made for island hopping and days in the sun.

Ports 1961 Spring 2011

Ports 1961 Spring 2011 collection was somewhat of a debut, with sister Fiona taking over the creative reigns from Tia.  Drawing her inspiration from the 19th century Northern African desert travels of Isabelle Eberhardt, she brought together the contrasting elements of such a terrain.  “The sensuous curves of sand dunes” expressed through fluid draping came together with the “angularity of rock” manifested in the tailored silhouettes.  The colors were various sun drenched neutrals, off-set with an oasis of jewel tone brights like emerald, amethyst and sapphire.  There was also an assortment of texture and fabrics, silk, cotton, linen, knits and suede.  The collection was mostly contemporary separates, but also included some evening wear adorned with crystals and embellishments.

Yoana Baraschi Spring 2011

Ultra feminine, soft and delicate was Yoana Baraschi’s message for Spring 2011. There seemed to be small capsules of particular inspirations drawing from past decades. One group of girls resembled a 20’s flapper garden party with pale hues, frilly lace,and lady like fringe, modernized with a great spring trench. A pair of models, one in a supple silk bird print dress and round 60’s sunglasses, the other in a fluid top with flowing sleeves and flowers in her hair, both emitted an easy festival style of that free spirited time. Yet another clique made the boldest statement by mixing navy and white stripes and dots with a bright fuchsia bold print, each infused with 50s waist conscious silhouettes. All elements of this medley harmonized into a very wearable and fresh collection.
