Three very different and eclectic designers took the runway with some very interesting results. From the Southwest to Studio 54, here are 3.1 Phillip Lim, Proenza Schouler, and Halston.

3.1 Phillip Lim

Color blocking, color blocking, color blocking. Lim’s collection was an easy blend of modern silhouettes with neutral color blocking and the key colors used were brown, black, beige, and a cobalt blue (with some greens mixed in). The collection reminded viewers of Calvin Klein’s restraint with a mod twist. Leather was Lim’s nod to the modern runway texture craze. The girls were chic and elegant. To mimic this look, shoot for some leather sleeves with minimalist colors.

Proenza Schouler

Were you a little worried when Proenza Schouler designers Lazaro Hernandez and Jake McCollough hinted at their American Southwest road trip in their Pre-Fall collection? No one expected how cool the fall collection turned out to be. Southwestern prints made for a strong showing with a heavy impact. Bold prints ruled the runway. Fabrics with plenty sheen, along with velvet, played with this season’s love of texture. The key colors were black, mustard, oxblood, white, and orange. In terms of prints, it’s hard for anyone else to top this showing.

Halston

A 70′s inspired runway again? Yep, expect this fashion trend to stick around for awhile. Studio 54 ruled the Halston runway in true 70′s glamour style. The main color palette was comprised of white, olive, brown, and green. Fur and chiffon were key fabrics in the collection. Necklines plunged and thigh-high slits matched many other designers’ showings. The colors didn’t stand out from one another, but the Grecian-inspired goddess gowns certainly turned heads. This collection was based off of Lauren Hutton’s character in American Gigolo.
