RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Andy & Debb Fall 2009

Edited by Kirby Marzec

With spring in their step, deisgners Andy Kim and Debbie Yoon, of Andy & Debb, made the cold and barren fall season a few degrees warmer. Andy & Debb’s butterfly-themed sportswear collection, although subtle in design, was an obvious decree that the life, delicacy and youth of the season should be forever evident, even when the leaves fall and the moods drop. Keeping the fall color scheme in mind, the collection utilized bow-shaped draping, petal ruffles, stained-glass reminiscent patterns, lilly-pad inspired corsets and oversized shoulder designs to bring out the butterflies of spring.
