Donna Karan’s spring collection was all about the American woman. So strong, confident American girls appeared in front of an all American backdrop (a yellow cab parked in the streets of New York). They looked sexy but it didn’t look like they were trying to hard. Their clothes looked airy and easy going, but the outfits didn’t seem too careless.
Prints, bright colors and the masculine/feminine theme were three main aspects of the show, all presented in a matchy matchy way (wedges, bags, floppy hats and clothes all in the same ‘theme’). All American shades like white, blue and red were mixed with a touch of pink, nude and green.
It was not the most mind blowing collection we’ve seen, yet everything seemed perfectly wearable for today’s American women. So by the time the sounds of Lenny Kravitz’ ‘American Woman’ filled the room, we’re sure every girl attending the show had already put a favorite item on her wishlist.
