Okay, so I'm slightly embarrassed to say this but I have joined the ranks of twitter (my roommate now aptly calls me a "twat") and because I obviously was way too excited to get life updates from designer demigod, Prabal Gurung, I saw that he tweeted that he wants Taylor Swift to open up his fall 2010 runway show: "Dear Santa May I make an early Xmas reqst? found out Taylor Swift is 5'11"Can she openmy Fall 2010 collctn? promise 2behave for a year xo PG," he tweeted. Excited to see if she acquiesces to his request!Follow me on Twitter, I'm kikivonglinow
I was quite intrigued by the progression of Prabal Gurung's S/S 2011 show. He started off by sending six looks down the runway with a color scheme straight out of the brightest Crayola box, but then dramatically shifted gears to a completely sheer, nude set of looks. Although I was excited by both of these seemingly contradictory aesthetics, the collection didn't seem to have that total cohesion or chameleon-like growth that I think is so important. Each season, I like to be able to reference a designer's collection with a few key monikers that trigger images and memories from the show but, I feel like those few adjectives don't really exist for Prabal Gurung's latest collection.
