Designer Love: Part I
Sunday, July 26, 2009
These are my Top 10 fashion designers that I adore. They are so incredibly talented, and I am completely in awe of them. Since this would be a super long post if I did all of them just in one entry, I am going to break it up into two parts. So here is part 1 composed of my top 5.....
(These images are all from the designers' spring/summer 2009 collection)
1. Marc Jacobs
2. Zac Posen
3. Oscar de la Renta
4. Monique Lhuillier
5. Diane Von Furstenburg
Stay tuned for Part II!

Oscar never lets me down...stunning!
July 26, 2009 at 3:37 PM
I love Oscar and DVF! All of these people have more talent in their big toe than I do in all of my being. So jealous...

July 26, 2009 at 3:57 PM
Awwww...i absolutely LOVE how they are all incorporating my color: orange!!! It looks wonderful paired with all the others, wouldn't you agree? I want the Zac Posen yellow dress ♥
July 26, 2009 at 3:59 PM
Gorgeous post ~ what a fabulous idea! I love your Part 1 selections and the fact that nearly half are women -- adore DVF and Monique Lhuillier! Can't wait for Part 2!

July 26, 2009 at 4:16 PM

July 26, 2009 at 9:39 PM

July 26, 2009 at 10:18 PM
Such a diverse group, love them all!
Thanks xxx
July 26, 2009 at 10:55 PM
love 'em all! but i esp. love that first skirt pictured by oscar de la renta!
July 26, 2009 at 11:51 PM
the dresses from oscar are AMAZING! also loving the ruffles in the posen group. fabulous choices :)
July 27, 2009 at 1:34 AM
all these designers are AMAZING! :)
July 27, 2009 at 4:12 AM
I love Oscar de La Renta, Zac Posen and DVF! The collection of Monique Lhuillier is also very impressing, such beautiful pieces. Must say you have picked very good ones here, can't wait to see the rest Bella!
July 27, 2009 at 6:31 AM
Oh wow, de la Renta and Lhuillier are to die for. DVF and Jacobs are just too flouncy for my body and taste, love how they look but could never wear them.

I am soooo bad with designers. I see clothes that I like, but don't know who designed them - I am not really in-the-know with the fashion scene. But looking at these clothes, I LOVE Oscar De La Renta's collection!
July 27, 2009 at 9:31 AM
...noticed that you like gem colors & feminine style...FAB! xo*
July 27, 2009 at 10:46 AM
You're very ladylike. I like Marc Jacobs, too, but he varies wildly for me, from season to season.
July 27, 2009 at 10:54 AM
Great list and lovely selections! I'm right there with you - and probably will be for Part II as well! Hope you had a fabulous weekend :) xx
July 27, 2009 at 11:36 AM
Marc has to be in everyone's top list right?!! And I absolutely LOVE DvF, puuure genius :) Hope you had a beautiful weekend dear.
July 27, 2009 at 12:39 PM
love them all, and marc especially :) i'm excited to see the rest of your list.
July 27, 2009 at 1:05 PM
LOVE LOVE LOVE! And we just asked for Zac Posen for a big fundraiser we are doing this fall. Cross your fingers. I will try to control myself if we do get him.
July 27, 2009 at 1:09 PM
Wow, great choices! I love Zac, Monique, and Oscar. I love the colors but not always the styling of DVF. Marc Jacobs is so everyday wearable.
July 27, 2009 at 1:25 PM
Out of these, DVF is my absolute fave...can't wait for Part II! :)
July 27, 2009 at 2:24 PM
great choices!
July 27, 2009 at 3:28 PM
Great picks, can't wait for part 2! I absolutely agree with you on MJ, he's one of the most creative designers out there right now IMO.
July 27, 2009 at 4:20 PM
I'm so with you on your choices!
July 27, 2009 at 4:57 PM
Loving the yellow Posen!! If only I could pull it off, but with red hair, yellow isn't a color that I wear well.
July 27, 2009 at 6:56 PM
these are some of my faves too! love all the photos you psoted here...and btw, thre was a zac posen sale on gilt today:)
July 27, 2009 at 7:59 PM
Ahh, I have a soft spot in my heart for Marc, since I have a Marc by Marc Jacobs wallet; those middle three designers just exude such exquisteness (it is now a word!), I love it. And Diane von Furstenburg always has such funky pieces! Great choices :)
July 27, 2009 at 8:00 PM
looking at these made me want to do some serious damage on the credit card. so pretty
July 27, 2009 at 8:30 PM
Zac Posen. Yesssssssssss. So gorgeous. What I wouldn't do for one of those skirts.
July 27, 2009 at 8:32 PM
Oh Marc, how I adore you. Great post.
July 27, 2009 at 9:24 PM
They are all so talented.
July 27, 2009 at 11:32 PM
They are talented! I really like the Zac Posen and Monique Lhuillier. Beautiful colours, elements and style.
July 27, 2009 at 11:36 PM
So gorgeous! I wish I could wear one of those dresses for just a minute, they're so beautiful!
July 28, 2009 at 1:27 AM
Great designers and what wonderful eye candy! I can't get enough of it!!
July 28, 2009 at 6:42 AM
definitely great picks...all of them!!! my fav is always ODLR...
oh and i wanted to mention..regarding your Move or not...
I think you should try it out... maybe if you have like some time off 2weeks...a month then you should come out to CA and see if you like it. i'm from NY so trust me when i say i know the harsh winters and the sweltering summers...so i suppose the best thing about CA is the weather... but to tell you the truth...i wish to move back to NY and live there only....i guess its just a big culture shock and the driving...and maybe its just me..but theres not a lot of people interactions because everyones driving..that drives me nuts. Everyone here on the coast is a little more laid back for my taste. but who cares what i think...lol. if you want to try it ..why not...its not like you cant move back. =)
July 28, 2009 at 7:15 AM
There are some really cute outfits in there! I like that these designers have things that I'd actually consider wearing, there are some runway outfits that are just so outragous sometimes.
July 28, 2009 at 7:21 AM
I love all too... Great choice!
XoXo
July 28, 2009 at 11:16 AM
omgosh i am in total agreement with you here, the last 3 esp. are/have been my inspiration this entire season. love the looks, if only i could afford even one piece...hehe
July 28, 2009 at 12:08 PM
i always love zac posen an dvf ! beautiful designss
July 28, 2009 at 2:54 PM
Zac Posen & DVF!! Love the pics ;-)
DVF is the only designer that fits my bod perfectly without have to alter/adjust anything.
Looking forward to Part II...XOXO
July 28, 2009 at 3:10 PM
I am so swooning...
July 28, 2009 at 3:43 PM
Great pictures, I think that my favs are Zac Posen's ruffles! I love ruffles... :D
July 28, 2009 at 6:11 PM
What great collections! So inspirational...and luxurious!
July 31, 2009 at 9:48 AM
