Rebecca Taylor's Spring Muse Is the World Traveler


Don't you love having a preview of what's in store for Spring '09 before it's even on the runways? I'll keep 'em coming, don't you worry. If Tracy Reese is a nature lover, Rebecca Taylor is a travel hound. But both American designers share a love of everyday pretty clothes.
Taylor gets nostalgic and worldly, appreciating the fragility of loved, stored-away clothes, and the fantasy of stepping into another time. Her dresses, bound to be numerous, have intimate detailing and ethereal layers of florals, chiffons, and lace. A neutral palette paired with rich jewel tones and watercolor designs deliver modernity and opulence. The Rebecca Taylor girl for Spring '09 is a bohemian world traveler: "She mixes her inherited couture pieces from her French actress mother with great finds gathered from exotic locations around the globe." She, sounds like someone I'd like to befriend.
