2o11 Fall/Winter
Jill Stuart
For Fall, Jill Stuart was inspired by Heidi Specker's photos of the Black Forest in Germany. "I love how she views nature architecturally," the designer explained backstage before the show. This reference came across in the collection via color-blocking in a palette of vibrant autumn hues—currant, teal, cognac, and emerald. The string of metallic frocks featuring a complex mix of sunburst and plissé prints had an Art Deco vibe and should appeal to Stuart's girly customer, particularly the bright salmon number worn by Anais Pouliot. But one of coolest looks in the collection didn't have lots of bells and whistles: The drop-waist dress with a pleated "lipstick" suede skirt and leather cognac bodice stood out, showing that Stuart knows how to stay ahead of the curve.
