Inspiration: The Azrias do what they do best for Spring 2012 and that’s release a collection boasting a ton of gorgeous, silky dresses. This time around BCBG shows off gorgeous color-blocked pieces that look like they were inspired by geometric, tribal shapes but in refreshing way. These frocks kind of look like something a fashion-forward girl in the Seventies would wear.
Top Trends: Color and lots of it meshed with more neutral shades. Assymetrical hemlines as well as high-slits, pleats and sheer panels. No body-con pieces this time around instead were greeted with gorgeous, relaxed-fitting, light-weight dresses.
Accessories: Though kept to a minimum, the accessories at BCBG Max Azria included wooden, sandal platforms that definitely took on a tribal vibe and simple metallic clutches. The clothes did the talking.
Favorite Looks: Where do I begin? This entire collection is one of those you wish resided in your closet because you would never have an “I don’t have anything to wear to this event” moment. The pieces are so relaxed, don’t need to be accessorized and are glamorous without trying hard. The sheer, sporty jacket is a really cool ode to the Nineties and the floor-length gowns, especially the geometric one with sheer panels near the hem, is stunning.
Thoughts: We can definitely expect to see a newer take on tribal and geometric shapes for Spring as well as chiffon pleats. The Azria’s really nailed it, providing us with a gorgeous, easy-to-wear collection for the warmer months.
