Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Spring 2010

Romance is definitely in the air this spring, with breezy, flowing gowns,, short bubble dresses that move, and slim, sexy styles enhanced with sheer and metallic fabrics.  Luxurious silks, satins, chiffons and organzas are highlighted in colors ranging from sophisticated blushes and nudes to oceanic colors inspired by coastal images from Italy to Rio De Jinero. 

One of my favorite designers at this year's New York Fashion Week is Brazilian designer, Carlos Miele.  Miele's color palette is inspirational and fresh, with long, flowing designs fit for a Grecian goddess, and short sexy looks fit for any Hollywood starlet.  Below are some of my favorite looks by Carlos Miele for Spring 2010.

Known from the hit show "Project Runway", Christian Siriano, is fashion's new Wunderkind. Tom Gunn, Project Runway's mentor, has called Siriano "this generation's Marc Jacobs". Siriano's gift of "ruffling", “elegant draping” and “delicate pleating” is once again apparent in his Spring 2010 line.  Siriano chose traditional yet sophisticated blush and khaki colors for some designs, while his more colorful garments were inspired by photography from the Italian coastline.[1]

While no one denies that Dennis Basso is in a class of his own when it comes to designs that involve fur, Basso really shined at this year's New York Fashion Week with his short metallic cocktail dresses, ballerina inspired tutu dresses, and sophisticated silk tulip styles.
