It's no big secret in the Stylehive office that I'm a huge fan of
Phillip Lim so of course I jumped at the chance to cover his fashion show! His latest collection shown at
Fashion Week featured a red runway with mirrored backdrop which set the tone for the looks. The models were all business with a modern suit in a deep red double breasted jacket and matching shorts. Lim featured many menswear inspired looks including a grey v-neck sweater over a long silky button front shirt with a bit of a lacy slip peeking out. The 3.1 Phillip Lim woman of next spring may be all business, but they are well aware of their femininity too. Asymmetrical dresses with appliques on the bodice or a sheer lace crop top in chartreuse paired with a matching high-waisted trouser breezed down the runway. Odds are that we'll be seeing these looks again on the set of
Gossip Girl or on the red carpet on the likes of Lim's celeb fans like
Camilla Belle or
Kate Bosworth. Beauty looks to be aware of are side-parted hair and strong eyebrows. Take a peek at my slideshow for some of my favorite looks from the show!
Trends: muted neutrals, bold colors, business separates, multi-textured, menswear
Celebs: Lauren Conrad, Olivia Thirlby, Leighton Meester, Alexa Chung
