L’Wren Scott Spring Summer 09-10 Collection

        

It’s a good thing the Internet didn’t exist in the decadent era from which Scott sourced the seed of her idea. She called the collection Madame du Barry after the famed mistress of Louis XV, who, Scott explained, was an early adopter of pink. It made for the stylist-cum-designer’s most colorful and light-spirited collection ever. As she evolved that rosy palette, the frivolity and frou of Versailles merged with her precise line.

Scott’s signature is a strict sheath dress, of which there was a chocolate-box assortment of beauties here. Still, it was refreshing to see the lightness of a chiffon polka-dot blouse spilling from a nipped fuchsia jacket, or the swing of a tea dress. Tilted, wide-brimmed hats immediately gave you Bianca Getting Married (an irony probably not lost on Scott’s beau, Mick Jagger, sitting front and center), and the coolly androgynous glam-rock suit silhouettes set the early-seventies thought in place.

Naeem Khan Resort 2010 Collection

        

Don’t experiment like crazy, make classic things, and hang in there,” said Naeem Khan, describing his strategy for besting the recession. However sensible, that policy could lead to clothes that are too safe, but that wasn’t the case here.

The nighttime specialist took some steps into daywear, showing lots of embellished cashmeres with ladylike full skirts in lamé and matelassé. And when it came to evening, Khan deployed his signature flash inventively.
