I have to be honest and say that the Spring/Summer 2011 Ports 1961 collection, under the direction of Fiona Cibani, was a bit of a disappointment. Not only were most of the pieces missing the Ports aesthetic (like the above trench) that we know and love, but they were also not at all distinct, and can easily be put on a rack with multiple other designer pieces and get lost in the shuffle.

I do have to applaud the accessories, from the necklaces, to the rings and shoes, everything was a total must have!

And of course, there were those few pieces which would have made Tia proud.

One of my fave collections so far this season, Tia Cibani gave us reason to wear chunky sweaters all over again. A collection full of modern silhouettes in voluminous shapes, Ports 1961 remains a brand every women should have in her closet.

I’m super excited that Adam Lippes, Marc Jacobs, Nicole Miller and Ports 1961 have decided to become involved with our Haitian Relief efforts. All this week we’ve been contacting designers, asking for contributions and the fashion community has not failed to once again show itself as and industry with heart. Thank you so much to all those who have been calling and reporting on my efforts. Giving up a seat at fashion week is nothing compared to the efforts being made by millions of individuals to make some change in an area that is suffering so greatly.

Thank you to all the designers who are allowing me to offer this small contribution to a country that requires our attention and support.

I will keep all of you updated on who else donates to this cause. Here is a list of designers involved and press that this story has already generated. Be sure to visit these sites and comment to encourage follow up stories.

Although a literal interpretation isn’t necessarily a bad thing, ingenuity certainly lacks when you see a collection and can peg the inspiration, without even looking at the press-kit! Not only did the color palate, including colors like tangerine, amber and azure, scream Bombay, traditional angarkha coat inspired items were a bit too obvious for my liking. If the looks weren’t literal, they were completely out of place. Towards the end of the show, Cibani showed bright pink and black satin draped dresses…India? Really Ports, just because times are tough doesn’t mean you’re allowed to get lazy with creativity!
