Nanette Lepore’s Fall 2011 Collection was primarily composed of light, sheer, luxurious materials elegantly draped around the female body. The show started off with an ivory ankle-length dress tastefully embellished with a shimmery gold pattern, paired with an off-white porous cardigan. The show progressed to present multiple gauzy long dresses, transcending into knitted everyday wear, and back to austere silk and gauzy dresses draped and tailored to properly show off the female form with touches of gold and filmy black top layers. A few black leather pieces with horizontal cut-outs and heavy wool winter coats also made an appearance in the primarily delicate gauzy and light knit collection. Overall, the outing was beautifully chic and representative of Lepore’s famous talent for timelessness.
