3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2010

Vera Wang Spring 2010

Michael Kors Spring 2010

There is nothing like the perfect little black dress.  It is a must have in every woman’s closet.  Chic and sophistication are two words that comes to mind when you think of this wardrobe staple.  Luckily Michael Kors, Vera Wang and Phillip Lim have updated the LBD for spring 2010.  They’ve managed to keep it chic, while making it more relaxed for the warmer weather.

3.1 Phillip Lim added oragami pleatings in taupe and lavender.  The pleatings create visual interest, and instant sophistication.  Vera Wang inserted a beautiful print at the neckline.  The print elevated it from traditional to modern.  Michael Kors went for a more overtly sexy cut-out at the waist and straps.  It is the most daring of the three, but go ahead, don’t be shy.  There is a LBD for everyone this season.  Each designer had their own interpretation of the little black  dress for spring, and they gave it a little more personality.

Christian Dior Spring 2010

Today the skies were blue, and the sun was shining brilliantly.  Spring is finally here, okay it’s not official yet, but work with me.  It felt like we were stuck in a never-ending winter, but now that it’s here, it’s time to trade-in our bulky coats for lighter gear.  What could be more perfect for warmer weather than the trench?  The spring 2010 trench is nothing like your mother’s jacket; it’s been updated and re-worked to make us fall in love all over again with this classic wardrobe staple.

Burberry Prorsum started with the classic trench, and they never cease to amaze us with their ability to remain a dominant force in this market.  The draping on this trench is stunning.  It’s so beautiful, that it could be worn as a dress.  I love the proportions, especially the three-quarter length sleeves.

Celine removed the sleeves from this classic coat, and made it look like a desirable shirt dress.  It’s both sleek and modern.  A jacket like this will have you yearning for a few raindrops just so you can throw it on and go.

3.1 Phillip Lim brought us the fun vinyl trench in fire engine red.  You can tell this sporty coat was made to get wet in the rain.  If the rain doesn’t cooperate, then you have the option of a water balloon fight.  Hey, you have to take it out for a test drive. 

Christian Dior’s leather trench is super sexy and sultry.  The tan color is the only thing traditional about this hip-length beauty.  Take this one out day or night, and it will show that you are a card carrying member in the business of personal style.

3.1 Phillip Lim delivered a spring 2010 collection that was effortless, as well as glamorous and unfussy.  On the glamorous spectrum you have beautiful sequin dresses and dresses with the most intricate details.  Sure we’ve seen sequins throughout this fashion week, but the delicate origami type foldings on some of the dresses were unique to this show.   As a side note, where the sequins are concerned, I’m on-board for wearing them for day or night, and I won’t wait for the spring either.  The more relaxed pieces were no less stunning with perfect proportions and incredible fit.  Next season we will all want to be the Phillip Lim girl, cool and chic without really trying.  The pieces were deceptively simple at first glance, but stunning.  He offered a great variety; we were treated to wonderful separates and those great dresses with beautiful detailing.  It is easy to see all the love and care that was put into this collection.  A girl could have a field day mixing and matching the shorts, tops and trenches.  The 3.1 Phillip Lim runway show was definitely a highlight of this New York Fashion Week Spring 2010.
