New lines that they'll be releasing this Spring will be helmed by famous French haute couture designer Jean Paul Gaultier and New York based designer Zac Posen. JPG's line will be released March 7th, and Zac Posen's April 25th. Both look books for the lines have been released. But for this post, I'll only discuss Zac's and make a separate post for JPG's line.
Here are some looks that caught my attention from Zac's line:
I'll start off with one of my favorite pieces. I don't why I find this garment so endearing, but I do. Perhaps it's the the canary hue complimented by the geo cut. I'm willing to bet it's the late 50s/60s motif that gets me though.
One of the cohesive themes in the line are floral pastel patterns, and black gold metallics. It's most definitely a refreshing and bold take on the usual Spring trend.
UGH-my gawwwwd, that ruffled red dress- I just die for. It's such a perfect shade of red and the bust/waist have such a feminine structure.
Ain't nothin like a sophisticatedly cut dress pant. FYI, the pant in both pics is the same.
The overall look is very young and chic. Contrary to Posen's Spring Resort '10 collection. Which is understandable, since the targeted group for these lines are teens and young adults. However Posen does play up some similar colors and structures in both collections. Reasonably priced as most Target lines. Although that opinion may be subject to change. There have been times that garments have been priced well and the garment's wear did not deliver. Like the Rodarte collection, which had many signature Rodarte designs, except the material was quite frail and uncomfortable. I might as well have been wrapped in a potato sack with the same bodust and design as the clothes. I truly do hope this line delivers as it seems to in these pics.
