Emilio Pucci Resort 2010

The Emilio Pucci Resort 2010 collection is Peter Dundas's second collection for this house. The clothes were casual and fresh, as a resort collection should be. The color of choice was blue. There was a variety of silhouettes and Pucci patterns in the collection; but, still, the dresses and tops are the main attractions and the jackets and pants took a back seat. All in all, a very nice resort collection!

Stella McCartney Fall 2009 Ready To Wear

Stella McCartney's Fall 2009 Ready To Wear collection showed many of her signature slipdresses. They looked soft and effortless on the models. Some of these dresses had panels of silk/tulle which displayed delicate see-thru lacy patterns on the arms and legs of the models. The dresses were extremely feminine! At the same time, the collection had many beautifully structured jackets and coats. Especially gorgeous was the oversized boyfriend jacket. When worn with the thigh-high boots, it was very sexy!
