Fashion Week Day 5: Jenny Packham
Jenny Packham brought some true glamour to the tents with her Spring/Summer 2011 runway show Monday morning. The designer's collection was inspired by the elegance and excitement of young women at debutant balls, and thus the looks had Blair Waldorf written all over them. The colors were muted and romantic: blue, grey, ivory, and blush pink. Packham's gowns and cocktail dressed had a youthful sophistication, incorporating lots of sparkle and a few beautiful watercolor prints. So many perfect red carpet moments are to be had from this collection. Though Packham is known for her gowns, one of my favorite looks was actually a shorts outfit consisting of a blousy sleeveless bow-neck top and a pair of gold fully beaded shorts. The collection was stunning and cohesive but may have verged on too much of the same, as many dresses were nearly twins in full and knee lengths. Thankfully, a few embellished shirt-dresses broke the mold and provided a surprising twist on preppy glamour.
