The Ruffian collection at Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion week. For Spring 2012, Ruffian explored their namesake, “Ruffian”, the filly racehorse and the society surrounding the racing world. The use of graphic inlays, colored silk, and couture details were abstracted from the jockey’s world, merging the masculine and feminine with sharp tailoring and a bright pallate. The inspirational muses were Charlotte Casiraghi and the Comtesse Jaqueline de Ribes. See images from the collection in the slideshow below

Sarah Nami Ahn is a Korean American designer with brains & creativity. Not only does she possess a PhD from UCLA, she is the creator and founder of NAMI. NAMI is a lifestyle brand based out of Los Angeles.The Spring Summer 2012 Collection by NAMI was inspired by Sarah’s worldwide travels and her love of origami. Her fondness of the Japanese art of paper folding inspired her collection that translated into pleats and triangular sleeves that fold up onto the shoulders.
It was her first runway show in NYC held at the Audi Forum on September 13th, 2011. Who can believe a neuroscience major can be a talented womenswear designer. She is the future and inspiration to aspiring up and coming designers.
As seen in the detail work of her designs, her collection is everyday pieces that can be worn in the daytime or evening. From sleeveless chiffon jersey top, pleated tank dress, a-line halter dress, sleeveless scoop back dress, strapless chiffon crepe gown, pleated shoulder day dress, chiffon tuxedo shirt, chiffon contrast color halter vest, and wrap front capri pants. These are ready to wear pieces with elegance.
