Resort 2012

Season after season, Francisco Costa shows us that his vision for Calvin Klein is one of a particular type of discipline. This discipline pertains to color, line, and even model selection and makes pieces very distinct even in their utter simplicity.

The Resort 2012 season was no different and yet I found myself thinking of other designers as the collection showed. Michael Lo Sordo who showed in Australia, Thomas Tait who is a growing industry favorite in London were only two. Even the latest collection from fashion blogger Prince Pelayo, which just debuted and in turn makes me think of Davidelfin, came to mind. Other than those pieces I found myself fighting with the flatforms while interested in the closing pieces with their metallic piping.


While I'm sure the pieces will find red carpet success I can't help but wonder has Costa squeezed as much as he can from this type of aesthetic? As the menswear collection seems to be dabbling into other things a little more wholeheartedly, will the womenswear follow? I can only hope so.
