The Show: J.Mendel

The Theme: Serge Gainsbourg’s song “Cargo Culte”

The Color Palette: Pastel Peach, Yellow, Light Grey, Cream

The Signature Look of the Collection: Designer Gilles Mendel’s lady this season is truly the epitome of Parisian chic; a phrase that I use sparingly, and dusted off solely for this show, this season. Everything that a woman would strive to exude when it comes to communicating through clothing — stylish, sensual, and incredibly polished, is all evident in this collection. Peek-a-boo lace, carefully inlaid into the garments, organza, jacquard, and even geometric shaping pay homage to traditional pieces with expressively modern updates. One of the most memorable lineups for spring, expect iterations of Mendel’s designs to grace every store, from high to low, come spring (or sooner!).

We sincerely hope you didn’t miss The Met Gala Red Carpet, but just in case you did, we have rounded up our Fashion Pulse Daily “Bests” of the evening full of glamour, in honor of Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations exhibit launch.

Best Sparkle: Carey Mulligan co-chaired the evening’s event in none other than Prada (see above).

Best Use of Color: Gwyneth’s light lavender Prada mini was just the right amount of color, and did you see those sequin pockets?

The New York Fashion Team’s Fall 2012 Top Trends

by fashion pulse contributor

We’ve seen a ton of shows for fall 2012, and decided to share a couple of our favorite trends that are sure to be big come fall 2012:

Gradient Hues

Color blocking hasn’t gone away, but a new color scheme has been creeping it’s way back into popularity through the fashion cycle — gradient colors! BCBG Max Azria certainly worked sun drenched, ochre hues and made them feel fresh by the dalliance of sheer fabrications, while Chadwick Bell piled on the ruffled layers for his salmon-hued version. The combination got a ladylike take at Vivienne Tam with prim and proper pencil skirts and jackets, while Emerson designer Jackie Fraser-Swan let it drip down into a patterned, charcoal-tinged coat. Try out the trend by investing one piece, like a jacket or skirt to pair with basics, or try out an accessory, like a necklace or handbag that gives off a dip-dyed effect.

Embellishment

The Fall 2012 runways blazed embellishment with everything from fringe to embroidery to beads to sequins, and it is a trend we all can incorporate into our wardrobe.  For a look that will turn heads, take a cue from J. Mendel and Custo Barcelona with head-to-toe beading and studs. Both ensembles tell a story of experimental spontaneity, fusing classic and contemporary to create a look that is all their own. Or, pull inspiration from Hervé Leger and Tracy Reese. Both designers beautified their collections by adding intricate detail. Whether fringe to create flair or sequins to invoke strength, the self-determination of embellishment makes it quite sublime.
