For Oscar

The fashion community lost a talented designer last week. He will be forever missed.

Today's post focuses on his latest collection from NY. It ranges from bold blacks to floral; from casual to ballgown, and everything in between.

I am always a fan of black+white with a dash of colour. The white jacket has a great A cut paired with a high round collar. I like this twist rather than the usual V cut and a round finish. This unique cut allows more of the skirt to be shown. I like the big black flowers on the skirt contrasting with the small colourful ones on the jacket. When the right contrasting elements are put together, it makes for a beautiful ensemble.
