Spring fashion typically conjures up the notion of bright colors and thin, loose-flowing material.
Not for Michael Kors.
He went back to basics, as the Christina Aguilera intro song he looped suggested. A great mixture of blacks and tans and whites and grays, with a few splashes of pink tossed in for good measure.
It worked. Very well.
I will never claim to be fashionably knowledgeable like the rest of the writers here are, but I know what I enjoy. Every bit of clothing designed by Kors for this show was fantastic. Well, except for those really deep-plunging V-neck shirts on the guys. Not my style, despite being of Italian heritage. These V-necks were deeper than anything your grandfather used to wear when he was shucking clams or tending to his fig tree in the backyard. Then again, if I had the pecs to look good in that shirt, I'd probably wear it strictly on principle.
The suits, the shirts and the pants for men well are imminently wearable any time of year by any person who chooses to buy them.
The dresses, the skirts, the blouses? Brilliant. So brilliant, that if I were a cast member on "Saturday Night Live" or some other sketch comedy show and had to dress up like a woman for a skit, I would demand the wardrobe department to get me something from Michael Kors' Spring 2007 collection.
