When speaking of the design legend that is Diane Von Furstenberg, one would have to agree that it is a tale of a dynasty that has largely contributed to the shape of American fashion as we know it. Her legacy is a myriad of iconic patterns and prints that have been inspiring the contemporary palettes of women from every walk of life for decades. This season was perhaps one of her strongest ever in terms of developing abstract prints that are easily understood by the DVF woman.
Dots are always a safe bet when it comes to inserting a light hearted print to appease the buyer's requests for key items, but even here (above) we see DVF feathers the edges and adds an asymmetrical edge for a slightly more ethnic flavor, like that of an animal skin.
In both of these looks (above & below) oblong geometric shapes are fused together with moody yet complimentary colors to give the illusion of a floral softness.
Above, the hombre moment is interpreted nicely by achieving a swooping angle on the diagonal. It is always characteristic of the DVF design squad to have a light-hearted look in the collection. However, despite the fact that a tunic (below) is printed with the whimsical feel of butterflies, the strategic border placements helps it adhere to the standard of sophistication that is always a part the overall initiative in her collections. This show was fashioned after the likeness of a rock goddess with nostalgic hints of a "hippie" era past and is filled with looks and prints that will be adored for years to come.
