The Lacoste Fall 2010 RTW Collection
debuted this past Saturday, one day after the Olympics Opening Ceremony. And
after seeing the new Fall looks, Glam Gal experienced a bit of deja vu. That's
because the same vibrant colors and 80's influences that we saw during the
Parade of Nations, were also evident within the Lacoste runway show.
The collection's overarching themes of optimism, confidence and happiness shone through via the ultra bright colors that hit the runway. But the show didn't begin that way. It started with big cozy knits in classic neutral colors, taking inspiration from photos of founder and tennis champ René Lacoste. And then the inspiration shifted, as Lacoste Ceative Director, Christophe Lemaire, showcased looks reminiscent of the '80's. Think color blocking, off-the-shoulder sweaters and even models who sported side ponytails.
Lacoste has always been one of the most
fashionable sportswear brands. And though it was a bit unconventional for the
brand and featured less of the iconic tennis polos, this collection was fun and
chic and definitely put an exciting new spin on sportswear.
