Pre-Fall 2009...I Can't Wait!









I know I should be excited for the springtime because not only does it come with beautiful weather and astonishing clothes from some of our favorite designers; after seeing all of those fashion shows in class why shouldn’t I be at the edge of seat waiting for this freezing weather to vanish? As we all know fashion is way ahead of its own game when it comes to new color trends, silhouettes, materials, patterns. Well, browsing through WWD.com I came across designer’s pre-fall 20009 and can I just say that “BOLD” is an understatement. With great silhouettes accentuating a women’s figure and outstanding colors, you will be put on the spot without even trying.
Diane von Furstenburg created an “urban jungle” theme with slimming silhouettes, animal prints, and rectangular blocks. My favorite collections included Narcisco Rodriguez who was inspired by fashion collages and created a bold colorful effect incorporating silks; and Zac Posen by whom I was infatuated by. His French-inspired collection emanates feminine beauty with bell skirts, hues of blue and yellow, as well as more neutral-colored pieces that were just as stunning.
So even though I am so amped to see this cold weathered season disappear and allow the warmth of the sun to radiate around me, along with the spring fashions to hit the streets, I am excited to see how the pre-fall collections will be acknowledged and what these designers have to offer later into the fall season.
