NYFW: Rebecca Minkoff

Theme:  A nod to Latino women featuring a mix of floral prints, laser cut lace and sportswear.

Palette: Accents of white as well as tropical hues of orange and yellow.

Beauty:  Fresh faced models, brown smoky eyes and braids pinned roughly to the top of the head.

Accessories:  Anything went - jewellery featured tribal necklaces and thick cuffs, shoes were laced to the shins and bags were a mix of duffle bags, snakeskin clutches and oversized totes.

Key Look:  The yellow laser cut pencil skirt was by far the best piece.



Review:  A bit heavy for my taste, the shows main theme seemed to be 'anything goes'.  The latino inspiration was evident in the 'lets go mexico' look emblazoned across the tee of look 3 as well as the tropical hues, floral embroidery and jewellery featured.  The black mesh skirt seemed to me to be the only wearable piece for mere mortals although the likes of Anna Dello Rosso would definitely disagree.
