On September 9, I'll be attending the Rebecca Taylor Spring 2012 runway show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York. Here's a sneak peek from the designer:

"The Spring 2012 muse is contemporary, fresh, and ethereal. The collection emphasizes cut and color with unexpected cut-outs in silhouettes. Shades of oyster are highlighted by bold citrus colors of lemon, lime and tangerine. Cropped slouchy embellished sweaters, long skirts and voluminous outerwear in technical fabrics add edge while apron back dresses mixed with bone colored snake leather bibs inject a paired down cool attitude which sets the tone for the Spring 2012 collection."

Rebecca Taylor is one of my favorite designers to watch, her looks are so coolly feminine and pretty. Her color palette for spring has some things in common with what we've heard about Tracy Reese, too, I think we'll be seeing lots of brights balanced with neutrals and it'll be interesting to see each designers' take.
