Scrumptious Colours in NY

New Zealand-born designer Rebecca Taylor was aiming for something “modern, ethereal and angelic,” at this month’s New York Fashion Week where Taylor previewed her spring 2012 collection. The angelic part was evident in filmy dresses — the moonlight eyelet asymmetrical dress for example, looked like a vintage nightgown. Limeade. Lemon. Some of Taylor’s colours sound so scrumptious they should be eaten. “There’s enough bummer in the world,” Taylor said backstage. “I just want girls to feel pretty and to feel sexy.” New York event site Joonbug wrote: “We loved the wide array of unique pieces and the mixture of sheer fabrics, shimmer and texture. This is definitely a collection we can’t wait to get our hands on.”
