Ralph Lauren RTW S/S 2012 NYFW

Lauren took the Great Gatsby in 1920s as his inspiration for Ralph Lauren’s Ready To Wear Spring/Summer 2012 New York Fashion Week. Beautiful, elegant and glamorous dresses from satin to chiffon represented in pastel hues, from ivory, blue, yellow, white and green to metallic but soft gives the feminine touch in floral prints from skirts to scarves. Hats, the open toe pumps and the other accessories make the collection more luxurious. And you can feel the spring from Ralph Lauren Spring/Summer 2012 Collection. It’s a lovely fashion show. Fresh and stunning. I love it.

This is one of my favourite recent advertising campaigns. It was a while ago now, but I thought it was worth featuring anyway. Marc Jacobs' collection is reminiscent of the fifties and sixties with pumps trimmed with flat bows, wasp waists and circle skirts. Though cleavage was on full display, the look was kept classy with a classic, feminine silhouette; polished hair; and clean make-up. There is little variation in the silhouette, which puts the focus on the details and fabrics such as fur buttons and leather skirts. You can view the Paris Fashion Week RTW show here and here.
