--ALEXANDER MCQUUEN
"Checkmate! A high-fashion chess game that dazzled with exquisite, real clothes—spit-and-polish Edwardians, mini party frocks, patchwork, and carousel horses."
__________________________
--BALENCIAGA
"Nicolas Ghesquière turned up the volume with grown-up deb dresses, looped and twisted "turban" shapes, and a brass-buttoned parade of slouchy sailor pants."
__________________________
--BURRBERY
"Christopher Bailey's girls could not have looked prettier in their Wedgwood prints, Amish quilt skirts, and eccentric mixes of knits, florals, and metallics. Utterly charming."
__________________________
--CHLOE
"Sexiness au naturel. Phoebe Philo delivered that in spades—angelic dresses, delicate tuxedo shirts, and drop-dead evening numbers that had an effortless cool."
__________________________
--CHRISTIAN DIOR
"It was John Galliano's reality show: a savvy—and wearable—mix of tailoring and flou, in fluffed-up suits, sweet knits, bright Barbie argyles, and a hippie parade."
__________________________
--DOLCE GABBANA
"Those snake charmers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana went wild with python on everything from slithery corset dresses to coats and jeans. Chic with lots of bite."
___________________________
--LANVIN
"Très Parisienne! A tantalizing collection spotlighting Alber Elbaz's exquisite take on pumped-up volume, intricately sculpted dresses, and fab coats."
____________________________
--JILL SANDER
"A serenely chic alternative to spring's exotica overdose. Sander was in top form with soothing prints, ruffled shirts, wide pants, and gentle frocks."
____________________________
--MARC JACOBS
"Ah, youth. Jacobs ran with that theme in a festive, giddy collection of ginghams, dots, bowed sweaters, poufed deb dresses, and sweet ruffles."
____________________________
--JEAN PAUL GAULTIER
"Cross a caravan of Gypsies with Gaultier's fierce Paris style, and voilà! A fun, flamboyant collection of wearable clothes"
____________________________
--OSCAR DE LA RENTA
"Bold ikats, Saint-Tropez caftans, natty nauticals, dazzling evenings—a divine tour de fashion perfect for de la Renta's loyal ladies, and his younger fans, too."
___________________________
--PRADA
"Out with froth. In with clothes "for living now." Miuccia Prada led the way with fresh tailoring, clean shapes, bird appliqués, and proud-as-a-peacock feathers"
____________________________
--PROENZA SHOULER
"Grown-up dressing for the young and hip. Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez went from vaguely retro days to high-glam nights."
____________________________
--RALPH LAUREN
"An homage to old Hollywood glamour and café-society chic delivered with polished perfection, from dressed-up sweaters to a parade of satin dolls."
