NYFW: Our Favorite Uses of Color on the Spring 2012 Runway

by Julia DiNardo

It was hard to narrow it down to just a few, as throughout the week there were a lot of amazing color combination, delivered largely through color-blocking and prints. Here are the ones that stuck out in my mind, days after the show had ended.

Mara Hoffman

The engineered prints, shoes, and hair at the presentation transported all viewers to an amazingly stylish, far off civilization. Hoffman once again dolled out a strong, print-heavy collection that keeps her in the top ranking of our must-sees every season.

Chris Benz

Somehow, Benz managed to make acid yellow sequins look downtown cool, paired with hi-top sneakers (footwear by Alejandro Ingelmo)  and “I just woke up” hair.  Not afraid to use color, Benz is more and more moving into the ranks as a solid American designer, and fashion week favorite.

Tracy Reese

It’s easy to see why Tracy Reese has been such a popular choice of go-to femininity, celebrating the brand’s 10 year anniversary, down to the very day, this fashion week. She showed a well done, beautiful collection of softer pastels and prints, complete with a turn of the century rustic, ladylike vibe, due to the hair style and parasol accents.


Milly by Michelle Smith
Inspired by Sonia Delaunay and focusing on a Milly girl who is “more interested in her books than boys this season”, Michelle Smith used graphic zig-zag, geometric, and color patterns that reminded us how poppy and strong primary colors can be.

BCBG MAX AZRIA

Azria tells us that a story of mixed prints and color blocking will continue into spring 2012, adding in a mix of off the shoulder details and interesting slits and cut-aways.
