Spring 2012: Doo.Ri and 10 Crosby Derek Lam

Doo.Ri
To be honest, I didn't like this too much. The colors were bland, and there wasn't much going on. I did have a few I liked, though.

Favorites:

 

The draping and color on this dress are so beautiful, I love that luscious plum purple! This was one of the only few that had some color in them.

The print on this is something new, and I also adored the way the waistline flowed down the dress in that dark patch of gray.

A nice, simple, chic dress in nude. If this dress was shorter, I could so see myself wearing this to, well, anywhere. It's the perfect basic you can wear with anything, and now the look is fresh off the runway. Nice.

Least Favorites:

 The combination of a flaired-out top and high-waisted pants is never good. This outfit looks uncomfortable and just plain awkward.

Since when were pajamas chic enough for a runway? Loose, flowing, pajama-inspired, comfortable outfits are one thing, unattractive onesies are another.

 This draping on this skirt is majorly off, and yellow and gray? No way.

10 Crosby Derek Lam

"She has a sunny, exuberant personality and a relaxed and cool sense of style." This is what Derek Lam said about his muse, Hanne Gaby Odiele. His looks indeed had a pop of color in everything, and this collection was fun and playful.

Favorites:

This perfectly displays the meaning of his collection. It's sunny, exuberant, and beautiful!

The stripes make it so fun and quirky, you gotta love it! And I also admire the nude quality about those, nice and simple to balance out the busy dress.

Least Favorites:

 I don't like the pants, they remind me of those jail uniforms with stripes.

I would have liked this, if it weren't for that striped thing. It looks like an apron.
There were some pictures that I didn't like the placement of. It involved pictures of another model being there, like this one, and it took away from the actual outfit. Here are some more examples:

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the actual clothes, just the placement of them.
