Billy Reid was one the many designer who open the first day of New York Fashion Week (9 Sept' 2010). Inspired by his hometown Louisiana, this spring collection is all about semi formal /preppy look. Rolled up pants, vintage inspired suspender, classic cardigan, and tennis shoe, it feels like back to college in 50 or 60's with a litte modern twist. Alot of white, gray, brown, and dark blue are the colours that dominate the collection.
Although it's kinda semi formal look, where you can mean business but still remember not to getting too serious, i think the whole collection is a little bit' boring. Too preppy slash "old" look. We can only wear those pieces separately or otherwise, people would think you just wake up from 60's. Not too crazy for this collection!
Hopefully we can see more better collection for the next view days!
