Isaac Mizrahi’s show. Wow what can I say? Lets see I’m sure I can come up with something. Very, Day at the Races look. From the early 1900s. The boater hat the models were sporting was very popular amongst affluent males in the Victorian to Depression era. Isaac’s use of it in his collection set the tone, and his use of it on the female models really gave an empowerment to it. His use of pastels reached even someone such as myself; I always look for the black version of anything I like.
He definitely took styles from this early era, loosened, shortened, and lessened the fabrics and made them into stunning pieces that are classy, yet with a flair. A flair that says, “Sure, I’ll go to your day at the races, but I’m still me, and you can’t change that.” Come to think of it, very My Fair Lady, without the cockney accent.
I most certainly look forward to seeing these pieces hit the stores. Among formal-wear were many short frocks that could be worn at day or night, for a day at the races or perhaps a romantic picnic in the park..now if only I can plant the seeds of picnicking in beautiful new clothes in my husband’s head..
