Prabal Gurung

This designer has to be one of my most favorites. I stumbled upon his collection last year after reading about his work in a magazine. After looking up his collection and finding out about his star studded clientele (Michelle Obama, Zoe Saldana and Demi Moore to name a few), I cannot stop talking about Prabal. The collection started off very strong. The first couple of dresses had electric blues and bright reds in the mix as well as some orange. What I really like about Prabal is that he knows how to infuse geometry in his collection, and he knows how to do it well. The color cutouts, the angles on his dresses and tops, they all work perfectly together. As the show proceeded there were more dresses and an abundance of modest skirts in silky fabrics. When the more "red carpet" dresses came out, they were absolutely stunning. Beautifully cut dresses dripping in sequins and embellishments on the shoulders, floral ruffled dresses floated down the runway, and a gorgeous yellow halter dress slit perfectly in the middle, it couldn't have gotten any better. I love Prabal's collection this season and I only hope he gets bigger and better in the design world. Here are some looks from the show.
