Givenchy Resort 2012

Riccardo Tisci toned the Resort 2012 collection with sporty minimalism. The indefinable silhouettes donned by model Joan Smalls were as sleek as ice. Yes, b-ball mesh remained fluid throughout the collection, and gave life to its floral fantasy – which was apt for a resort style collection. Palm Springs anyone?

Giambattista Valli Resort 2012

In the midst of preparing for his first Haute Couture collection in Paris, Giambattista Valli showed a comprehensive Resort 2012 collection. The designer showed off his ability to mix leopard prints, bold (lustful) colors, tweeds, and romantic floral prints. Of course, our favorite look is the leopard sheath.

Balenciaga Resort 2012

Nicolas Ghesquiere’s ability to cut an amazing pant is undeniable, but recently he has birthed a new baby in his collections – volume. We love the full, poufy skirts –and with that backstory to know – that were reminiscent of Mona von Bismarck, a top client back in the day who wore her skirts in the garden. From over the knee boots to strappy sandals, Nyasha Matonhodze strutted in Balenciaga’s signature aesthetic – architectural elegance.
