The Power of Prabal’s Purple, Runway Gets a New Color

Posted Sep 11, 2011

With his line of celebrity fans (and us little civilianistas) waiting with baited-breath to see what he was going to send down the runway, Prabal Gurung’s Spring 2012 RTW Collection was a mix of Wild-Prints, Bold-Geometric Cut-Outs, and a Bounty of Beautiful Fabrics in Brilliant-Lavender.  The one thing this young designer is absolutely Genius at, is his ability to be completely relevant/on-trend, while simultaneously having a collection that is filled with colors/textures/designs we won’t see anywhere else during Fashion Week.  So while every piece may not be a hit, his Super-Success comes from the fact that his work is completely Fresh/Authentic.  And I will commit right here/now that I believe Prabal Gurung’s Spring 2012 Runway Makeup will be among the top 3.  It was the first “Beauty” presentation, thus far, that elevated the entire show – and managed to shine on it’s own – Gorgeous!!!
