Spring 2012: The Playful Geometry of Milly

Milly's spring 2012 collection is playful, geometric and in-your-face fun. There's no denying that a lineup of looks like this begs for fabulous vacation plans, oversized sunglasses and shoes, shoes, shoes! I'm not completely on board with the colors (navy just isn't a color I enjoy), but I do like the Mondrian-influenced prints, the waist-whittling silhouettes and the flat out modern approach to dressing.

I see belts, slim pants, cropped jackets and pretty sundresses. All with structure we've been sorely missing for several seasons. As usual, runways shows such as these have me considering my leg routine and longing to rub on some self tanner. But mostly, they make me happy that spring will surely come surprise us soon with long sunny days and an invitation to wear color, color and more color.

What the beautiful people are saying...

These clothes are so beautiful and so well cut! I love the shades of green, cobalt and tangerine and totally agree with you – we needed a bit of structure in fashion!!

Gabrielle,

you are so right! I think the fluid fabrics keep it from looking old or stuffy. Theres something really inviting about those poppy patterns!

Something to say, gorgeous?
