Rebecca Taylor Pre-Fall 2016for Lookbook Friday

It is interesting to note these are both era’s where women were coming in to their own and finding their own strength, and of course looking fabulously chic as they saved the world from tyranny and forged ahead with the woman’s movement

Rebeca Taylor known for making feminine clothes that are sophisticated and accessible with a fresh modern approach is looking back a bit with the pre-fall collection. She sites the French Resistance and the Bay City Rollers as influences. It is interesting to note these are both era’s where women were coming in to their own and finding their own strength, and of course looking fabulously chic as they saved the world from tyranny and forged ahead with the woman’s movement. This collection is  a  celebration of this strength. Art deco prints, smart flowing blouses, high waisted semi-flared trousers, wide lapel trenches, and tailored track pants blend seamlessly in a surprisingly fresh way. Texture also has a bit of a moment in this line up, and can be seen in the quilted bomber jacket and lace detailing seen through out. And with a palette of pastels and neutrals occasionally broken up with splashes of blues, purples and oranges this collection effortlessly straddles this in between season when we are saying good bye to one season and looking towards the start of a new beginning.
