Resort 2014 Crush | Theyskens' Theory. Not the typical resort collection... Why? First of all because it offers a complete wardrobe, for all occasions and quite a range of climatic conditions. It's definitely an everyday collection. The color palette is sober: navy, black, grey and some deconstructed denim. The lines are neat and minimal, nevertheless the techinal fabrics and the 90's touch give Theyskens' Theory's collection an edge. The nowadays necessary sweatshirts are highly desirable and the navy dress - picture below - will certainly conquer an army of fashionistas.

RESORT 2014 CRUSH | BAND OF OUTSIDERS. Scott Sternberg delivers a preppy cool collection inspired by David Hockney. He describes the collection as his "version of the eighties". Once again, his tailored suits and jackets - the label's signature - are perfect and the 80's touch is easily identifiable by the drop sleeved leather jackets. The baby-pink overcoat and the multicolor bandage skirt are undeniably among our favorite items. Oh, and the styling with the flat loafers is just flawless.
