Elie Tahari Pre-Fall 2011

I love the entire collection, it's my favorite Pre-Fall so far . I especially gravitated towards the fur!
 
*yawn* Oh, did I miss something? Nope, I didn't. I really don't feel like there's anything here I haven't seen before. Cute and everything, but not exactly groundbreaking.
 
I agree that it's not groundbreaking but it's quite lovely nonetheless. It just looks so cosy.
 
There's nothing groundbreaking for fashion in general but I think it's quite groundbreaking for the Elie Tahari woman.
 
let's be clear: there's no big city working girl who doesn't have a little bit of elie tahari hanging in her closet. it's a top-of-mind brand for the "important meeting," "lunch interview," "drinks after work" crowd. it's interesting to watch how the big trends from spring -- the marc jacobs' seventies' coloration, the celine austere silhouette, et al -- inform this line right down to that thrown off fur thing prada did so well.

Yeah I saw the collection and I was like "didn't I just say that Prada and Mark Jacobs gave designers the stamp of approval they needed to design what they wanted for PreFall and Fall collections"... but I have to say I prefur this fur to all the fur from Prada

well said! I felt a Celine vibe too

I knew someone would compare the fur pieces with those at Prada's show, but some of them actually remind me of Lanvin FW 09 elastic fur stoles hugging models' arms.
 
A beautiful, absolutely wearable collection with the most sophisticated styling and colour palette; the two different reds here? I love.

It's just styling though - so many designers have styled jackets by hanging them on the shoulders like a cape since Philo did it at her pre-fall premiere collection at Celine.
