Another season, another set of wearable designs for resort, even if you aren’t headed to your summer house for a seasonal stopover you’re sure to find something you like. Here’s what we’ve been loving from Resort so far – be sure to tell us your favorites in the comments!
BALENCIAGA

Ballet inspired minimalism, that offers a welcome respite from the 80s infused disco vibe that Ghesquière has been giving us lately. A simple, elegant and dare we say it – pretty, collection that feels new. Plus, it goes without saying that those slate & coral heels are set to become an editorial (and street style) sensation.
GUCCI

The Gucci flora print is iconic and Frida has always found interesting ways of incorporating it into her designs. The Resort collection offers a colorful and feminine take on the Gucci standards and even boasts a little restraint – there is only one pastel suit!
DEREK LAM

We admit that we don’t quite see the Coming to America inspiration, but we’re happy that Derek Lam looked to a film that hasn’t been run into the ground for inspiration. All we see is clean, classic American design with a modern twist and really we can’t complain about that.
That dress on Liya for Balenciaga is outrageous! I absolutely adore it! Derek Lam deserves top honors for wearability, though, which I look for in resort and pre-fall collections, especially. I look for more utilitarianisn, and for “pieces” as opposed to “looks”. I can’t knock anyone for being different, though, for that’s what fashion is all about.
You are so right Timmy! Love Balenciaga too. Woot! I’d love to be one of them someday xx
Balenciaga is superb! :O love the cut-outs!
