Resort 2008
by The Fashion Cult
Resort shows aren’t my favorite. They sit in a strange place in between Fall shows and the fall season that make them seem strange and irrelevant. There is rarely major progress or changes in perspective.
Trends in Resort 2008: oversized hats, polka dots, pleats, ruffles, 50s ladies, 20s deco. Scroll each box for my favorites from each show.
Dior
High glam and high color, Dior’s Resort 2008 collection was very ladylike with 50s flair and south Asian spice. Regal.

Oscar De La Renta
Precise tailoring and ultra-feminine shapes

Carolina Herrera
Crisp and clean without being boring; Dig the shoes with the third dress.

Alberta Ferretti
Neutral colors, but in fabulous 20s shapes and silouetttes.
     . |
Chanel
Not entirely sure about the peep-toe boots, but I like the soft rock-n-roll vibe.

Gorgeous color and look at how they move.

I almost didn’t include Luca Luca due to the horrible way they styled the garments. These dresses are pretty, but the hats make me want to scratch my eyes out. Yuck!
