Derek Lam Resort Collection 2011
Derek Lam is a new favorite among Fashionistas. Fashion designer Derek Lam is a San Francisco native who is from a fashionable, San Francisco family. His grandparents ran a successful garment business in San Francisco that created bridal attire. So, it is no wonder that Derek Lam's designs are so well loved in the Bay Area. His inspiration comes from the clean lines of bridal attire, the understated style of San Francisco and the California Casual movement that originated in tech-heavy Silicon Valley.
Derek Lam's collections, season after season, embody what Fashionistas in the Bay Area seek; high-fashion designs that fit into the California Lifestyle. Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, Fashionistas seek styles that can easily be worn to work in a fast-paced start-up as well as to a winery in Napa for weekend of wine tasting and five star dining.
The understated elegant, California Casual hybrid style of dressing has reached beyond the San Francisco Bay Area over the past decade and into the closet's of Fashionistas across the United States. This is why Derek Lam's designs have become so popular, so fast. After working for Michael Kors in the 1990's, Derek Lam launched his first runway show during New York Fashion Week in 2003; and Fashionistas everywhere have been flocking to his designs ever since.
The resort collection that Derek Lam launched for 2011 is one of his most unique collections thus far. Lam has the incredible ability to blend current trends with classic styles that are easy to wear for almost any occasion. Lam has created a resort collection filled with wearable dresses that include asymmetrical hemlines and necklines while keeping in line with the above-the-knee trend for resort, and presumably Spring 2011. Derek Lam chose a color palette that combines bright orange and purple from the candy-colored 1960's trend, with the neutral, rich tan, black and white minimalism color palette. Derek Lam's pieces are loose fitting which makes them lady-like and appropriate for the current and ongoing lady-like or feminine trend.
Derek Lam has also created a cleaner, more classic handbag line than in past collections. To read about his handbag line for resort 2011 click here. . .
