I have watched this collection for years and never been
spurred to write about it but this season I am compelled to do so. Words almost
escape me after looking at a collection that is dress-centric, feminine, pretty
and now for the dirtiest word of all … wearable!

Now, don’t get the wrong idea and think that I believe this
is a collection to set the fashion world ablaze BUT these are clothes not just
clothes to be paraded on a runway but clothes that require no explanation, no
blah blah and nothing that requires any imagination other than “ how will that
look on me?”

The references are rife and much of it seems to be 70s from
my memory of that era but no matter as the designer has addressed women of
varied body shapes and who possess a more classic outlook in terms of what it
means to be well dressed. The gimmicks are few and far between, the vibe is
fresh especially in comparison to what we are seeing and... I know it is a
sucky word… but they are pretty.

No doubt many will think this all very boring but in a time
when most collections seem to be designed for markdown racks, you might want to
consider a collection that has great eye appeal and of course there is possibly
the second dirtiest word of all …
salable! So in the end, there is no mega fashion statement or revolution
to be seen here, just clothes that have a better chance than not of walking out
the door rather than a change of address from full price rails to markdown rounders.
