In recent years, Resort has become an important season for fashion editors and junkies alike. This means designers offer more pretty apparel for you to choose from during those winter months when you have enough money to shop and travel to warmer climates.
Case in point, Erin Fetherston, who I truly adore after her Fall 2009 Runway Show. Still on a high after the Juicy Couture appointment, Erin's Resort collection was grown-up, chic and sophisticated. With a slight Parisian influence, there were cigarette pants, sweetheart neckline dresses and one chic creme blazer with black lapels. The favorite piece was a one-shoulder metallic cocktail dress, which is a major part of the designer's DNA.
The collection for Erin Fetherston was a completer in and of itself, whereas most resort collections serve as transitional looks from Fall to Spring or extensions of designers' Fall lines. "The idea is that this collection is a self-contained wardrobe," says the designer. Let's add a slash to that creative consultant.
