This season’s L.A.M.B. Fall 2011 collection was just about as beautiful as the fashion designer/rock star Gwen Stefani herself. Her mere presence effuses inspiration and joy, which directly translated through her latest line. With a new mix on theme display, Stefani incorporated six differently themed groups (Soldier Girls, Ragga Muffin Girls, London Girls, Buffalo Girls, Mod Girls, & Glamour Girls) and completed the runway show with an unpretentious moving spotlight following the models up and down the catwalk as they strutted to the beat of a techno-rock mash-up with a grand-scale video screen blaring a themed-related montage. With the close of the final night of NYFW, Stefani’s fall collection of classic looks with a modern L.A.M.B. menswear-and-‘70s-inspired flair brought a new sense of style to the fall 2011 season and a great close to the week.

Kate and Laura Mulleavy’s inspiration for this season’s Rodarte collection was undoubtedly the American Plains. The color palette was neutral and earthy-with the exception of the bright red show closer. The collection was steeped with silk gowns, long skirts, and leather pieces. It was also exquisitely hand-crafted. The appliqué on the pinafore tops and skirts was appliquéd were not made by a machine, reinforcing the high price point of these items.

Rachel Roy, a designer most known for her evening wear, is evolving into new territory as her business expands and effortless dressing becomes more of a must. Her F/W 2011 collection certainly was less about evening wear and more about everyday versatility. The collection had an emphasis on layering that made it easy to create looks that could go from day to night. Hefty knits, stripped tops, and even floral harem pants gave the collection a stylish yet accessible feel.

As all of this record snowfall melts, we can’t help but get excited for spring, and better yet, summer. Sandals, cool sundresses, lots of skin…and what better way to usher in warmer climes than with H&M’s Conscious Collection. The understated array of tops, tunics, dresses, and bottoms are all made from organic cotton, recycled polyester, or tencel, a biodegradable fabric made from wood pulp cellulose. The color scheme is also perfect for the hot days to come: crisp white and muted taupe, with lots of eyelet and scalloped details to add that feminine touch. On those days when it’s too hot to think, these pieces will take the guesswork out of looking good.
