The colour palette, the references to antique fashion and underwear really puts me in mind of Richard Nicoll winter 2009. Though, this isn't the first collection in New York to remind me of this.
I think there are some really beautiful dresses - I saved five of them to my 'Favourite Looks of S/S 11' folder - it's much classier than usual; not a single micro-skirt.
But then! It fails somewhat at the end with the mesh dresses, though looking back on it, I can see the underwear influence.
I wish wish wish Max Azria would design some different shapes, lengths and seperates for Herve Leger, but I know that when prom season comes around, the bandage dresses are what the rich girls are starving themselves for. Boo!
