Paris Fashion Week: Lanvin Spring 2011

 I really wanted to see what Lanvin was offering for Spring 2011 since they're about to do a collaboration with H&M next month (launching November '10. Can't wait to see what they do..). Loved this fierce group of models above. Check out the video below to see a few Spring 2011 pieces from Lanvin yourself.

Naeem Khan Spring 2011...

Style.com reviewed Naeem Khan's Spring 2011 collection and they thought that it was very reminiscent of Roberto Cavalli. And I could see that, especially in the pic above. But they also thought that there "were hardly any dresses that screamed Michelle [Obama]" and I have to disagree there (Michelle O wore Naeem Khan to the first state dinner). The first dress that hit the runway, a bright yellow frock with black beading (at the :30 mark), I could totally see Michelle Obama wearing along with another gold embellished sheath dress that another model wore with a tangerine statement necklace (at the 1:05 mark). I thought both of those dresses fit her style. Anyhoo, check it for yourself below to see more from Naeem Khan's Spring 2011 presentation.

Xerox Prints at Isaac Mizrahi Spring 2011...

I thought those were prints at Isaac's show, but I couldn't be sure. Wow. So creative.

via WWD: Isaac Mizrahi's spring collection was called IM Xerox and opened with a series of simple whites printed with tromp l’oeil pockets, buttons and lapels, as if they had been produced at Kinko’s. It was his amusing take on 3-D in 2-D, which continued on dresses, long and short, in black-and-white floral grid prints followed by the vivid, full-color versions. Mizrahi is a master of the witty design gag and makes it work by grounding the clothes in classic uptown whimsy, here in a glamorous throwback.

Proenza Schouler Spring 2011 [FULL VIDEO]...

Proenza Schouler designers via Style.com:
"We wanted it to be a little more polished," Jack McCollough said backstage, before Lazaro Hernandez jumped in: "So we took all these feminine codes—the embroideries, the flowers—and mixed them up in our own way. We wanted to do something without any obvious references." By the end, the models weren't ladies anymore. With their loose tank dresses made from guipure lace in hot, sulfur colors and flat sandal-boot hybrids, they were simply cool Proenza Schouler girls. Check out the video below of Proenza Schouler Spring 2011 in its entirety.

The American Prairie at Anna Sui Spring 2011 [FULL VIDEO]

I love when designers have a theme to their shows and you can clearly see it. That was definitely the case at Anna Sui's Spring 2011 showing. Her theme was "The American Prairie" and that inspiration was visible in just about all of her pieces. Some of it had a 60's flower child type feel and I don't know if you can get any more American Prairie than that. Check out Anna Sui's show below in it's entirety.

3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2011 [FULL SHOW VIDEO]...

Those are two of my favorite looks from Phillip Lim's Spring 2011 collection. Loved these as soon as I spotted them on the live stream strutting down his runway. Well I'm not gonna say much here about the showing because I found his complete runway show taped in its entirety on Youtube (woohoo!) so I'll let you watch and judge for yourselves. Check it below:

Garden Party Chic at Michael Kors Spring 2011...

We dubbed the dress above "the salad dress" when we saw it come down the runway for obvious reasons. That being said, I always like what Michael Kors presents (I'm a fangirl) and his Spring 2011 collection was certainly no different. He usually does a very luxe "we're on a fabulous vacation" in the Maldives/Safaris of Africa/South of France (pick one) but this time, Michael kept it closer to home as in right in the backyard. And again, I loved it. It was casual, but still very glam yard party fashion. Check out the video below to see more from Michael Kors Spring 2011 line:

Clean & Simple at Narciso Rodriguez Spring 2011...

via WWD: The first model out at Narciso Rodriguez, wearing a bias-cut linen canvas sheath, laid out his spring premise quite clearly: long, lean silhouettes and a spotlight on feminine tailoring. Check out the video below for more from another Michelle Obama fave Narciso Rodriguez's Spring 2011 show.

Badgley Mischka Spring 2011...

 The Badgley Mischka duo is widely known for their fabulous red carpet fashion, but I quite enjoyed the dressed down casual chic looks and cocktail length dresses at their Spring 2011 showing. And of course these more casual looks had the same Badgley Mischka polish. The dress above was my absolute favorite of this collection hands down. It had an easy drape, with a ruffled racer back. This dress was just me all day. Love. Check out video from Badgley Mischka's Spring 2011 collection below:
