Nanette Lepore

My absolute favorite! :D

Images from style.com

These are images from Nanette Lepore's RTW 2010 Fall collection. I honestly had no idea about her. Did you? I stumbled upon her when I googled "velvet". I checked her collection out, and I loved it very much. These images here were my most favorite! Especially the second to last image. What I liked about this collection were the rich colors she used: the reds, the greens, and the blues. There's a little of orange in it, I must say that even though I am not very fond of the color orange (at all), the shade of orange here works out perfectly! On style.com she mentioned her inspiration by stating, "I looked at a Renaissance portrait and bumped up the colors". I personally love the renaissance and medieval ages colors. Actually when I took a Textile Design class in the spring, I designed a collection of Medieval/Robin Hood inspired textiles for the fall. Lepore's collection reminded me of my own textile collection. Well I hope you guys liked as much as I did! Do you guys have a favorite collection? Let me know what you guys think! Hope you have an amazing fantastic weekend!!
