New York Fashion Week Coverage- Marc Jacobs Fall 2011Collection

One of my most favorite collections out of all the collections shown at New York Fashion Week is definitely the Marc Jacob's collection. The evening of the show I literally sat at my computer for three hours on Style.com and awaited for the pictures of the show which was going be put up and when it finally did I screamed for joy. I reviewed the photos over and over again analyzing all the specific details, styles and the choice of colors used. I thought that his collection was absolutely brilliant and really showcased all the trends that were used previously both in his spring/summer 2011 collection as well as his fall 2010 collection. These trends included the military trend, the lace trend, the 70's trend with the wide leg trouser, the leather trend as well as the high shoulder trend which is absolutely my favorite. It was nice to see the versatility of his entire collection and his use of pattern which happens to be polka-dots for the fall 2011 collection. It was nice to finally see the models hair all slicked back into a simple pony tail and very natural make up which included simply liquid eyeliner, some foundation and blush. As soon as I viewed the video of his collection on Style.com my initial reaction was the amazing headbands the models were wearing. It kind of reminded me of the child show I used to watch called the Flinstones! I especially loved how this collection was a combination of the formal kind of wear but still very chic and put together.  The tailoring of the skirts and blazers were amazing and the unique polka dotted tights added to the whole ensemble of each of the outfits shown above. I loved the colors he used such as the deep greens, the dark blues, burgundys, whites, creams and blacks because they are so different and creative to wear if you really want to stand out of a crowd and look trendy. The box like bags/ purses the models were carrying with their outfits were exceptional and I would literally die to have one in my closet! I am most definitely inspired by Marc Jacob's collection and I will be keeping an eye out on any key pieces while shopping that look as if though they are part of his collection such as clothing that has polka dots and are the colors that he used in his collection. My first goal will be to buy a pair of polka dotted black sheer tights!
