Resort 2012 - G is for Giambattista Valli, Givenchy & Gucci

Giambattista Valli

This is my favourite collection in this post, with mixed patterns, colours and cultures - the palette was saturated and rich. The last pictured dress is absolutely stunning, love the mix of colours, the bold print, the simple and beautiful silhouette. That glorious yellow gown is also gorgeous...





Givenchy

More bold colours and prints, loved the shoes:





Gucci

Beautiful saturated colours, some colour blocking and liquid gold pieces at Gucci:

Resort 2012 V is for Valentino, Vera Wang and Viktor & Rolf

Vera Wang

Easy, relaxed, sexy.

Valentino

Loved the white lace dresses, but my favourite was the last light-as-air gown pictured last:







Viktor & Rolf

Love that sleeveless trench and drapey blue dress, how stunning is that shade of blue?

Resort 2012 - Chloe in Limbo

While Chloe was in 'limbo' (i.e. Hannah is no longer creative designer, and Clare Wright Keller had not yet started), the creative design team came up with a Resort collection that reinterpreted recent and past pieces. I loved the Street Style photography they used, the use of orange, and the floaty dreamy gowns:
