Fashion Focus Chicago: Macy’s Runway Show

On Thursday I had the chance to go to the Macy’s runway show and check out Spring 2010 collections. Even though it was pouring with rain no one seemed to mind as it was so much fun having fruity cocktails like The Catwalk and Pink Lemonade with strawberries and nosh on delicious appetizers.

As for the show, lots of fabulous new designers in Chicago as well as designers from Macy’s incubator collections. So check out who was there and what’s to come for Spring 2010.

This was the first on the runway and actually my favorite designer of the entire show. I loved the soft colors such as the teal blues in her collection, it just felt so spring/summery and fresh.

Blake Standard used to work for Abercrombie and I think he took that experience and used it to creative very easy to wear pieces that you can dress up for work or play. I did love the sparkly black hats and purse, I want one of those.

Loving these fresh, exotic, bright colors for the Spring. I really liked the dresses and the darker green/lime greens tops that looked great with the khaki skirts.

Cream skirts  and light colors tops is what I saw from this collection. Great casual looks for the Spring.

Cream seems to be the common theme for the Spring 2010 look however, I think to pair cream with bright colors it can look very sophisticated and casual, and the brighter colors help to not wash out lighter skin types. I really liked Furio’s dress collection; cream dresses with an almost teal tortoise shell shell look very chic.



Nora del Busto
