Joanna Mastroianni, an amazing show!

So far, by far Joanna Mastroianni has got to be my favorite show. I just came from the 9 am showing of her spring line and I must say that I am in love with her clothes.
The items that were being displayed were mostly solids and whites. The colors in particular were amazing. Forget the pantone color guides for a second. Forget the trends. Mastroianni’s line was throwing convention out the window and showing gorgeous colors. I almost want to skip the upcoming fall season. There were plenty of pastels, flowing skirts with multiple layers and chiffon. The statement being made was “here I am, look at me, in bright sunshine yellow!”
I think one of the reasons this show was my favorite was because the clothing was surprisingly wearable. What I mean by that is if I had tons of cash, I would buy them… in a heartbeat. Many of the outfits looked like almost anyone could wear even if you are not the supermodel body type. They hide what needs to be hidden and accentuate the good.
There was some conceptual high design pieces that probably could not be worn in daily outfits, but what was there for the most part gave ideas on how to put great pieces for the spring season together. An incredible show. Pictures to follow soon!
