Much
of what we love about the idea of packing our bags and taking off to
destinations unknown has to do with bringing too many pieces from our closet
and planning to not come back for awhile. The 2014 Resort Collections each read
like a post-card from the designers' own travels, with a sense of voyage and
the kind of departure to a delighting newness so often found while vacationing.

Gucci
gave us Lady Stardust’s champagne daydream in loungewear and kimono coats. Hooded
jackets, slouchy silk tracksuits and neckerchiefs were looks that could be
interpreted to transition in anticipation of a long spring and a late summer.
Iridescent textiles and ochre, oyster, mink and mustard in the color palette
gave off a seventies glamour counterbalanced by updated print pieces and pairs
of platform espadrilles with
fabric ankle-ties.

Moschino
Cheap & Chic made the trip away from their darker side of fall and winter
with daisy chains and crochet bell sleeves. Yellow centric pieces, tie-dye, a
leather skater skirt and embellished calf high motorcycle boots made their wildflower
girl invariably ahead of trend and all about peace, love and being a little
misunderstood.

Finally Thakoon Addition, with the soft-focused
geometric structure that the designer’s aesthetic point of view continues to
re-shape season after season. Predominantly black and white sportswear was
minimalist and layered, with muscle tee dresses and boxing shorts that will be
next summer’s basics for those staying in the city.
Other collections to take notice of: Fendi, Tory
Burch, Clover Canyon, Versus J.W. Anderson (for Versace!), Cut25 by Yigal Azrouël and, as always, Chanel.
