New Favorite Designer: Vanessa Bruno


My favorite designers change all the time, but the basics are still the same... Rachel Roy, Ralph Lauren, Chanel (Karl Lagerfeld), Marc Jacobs, Peter Som, Derek Lam, Zac Posen, Alberta Ferretti, Proenza Schouler, Phillip Lim, and many many others! But Vanessa Bruno is currently my new obsession.
Not only does she have an amazing name, but her designs are classic and timeless. I think a lot of her stuff seems to drape beautifully, and I can't wait to be a real grownup and get some of her clothes! Of course she is a french designer! I think that one of her calling cards (just something that I've noticed...) is pleated jersey! First of all, jersey is like the most flattering fabric in the world... and the fact that it is pleated just feels like all your rolls/jiggles/wiggles will be hidden/concealed by the pleated jersey!
That was just a sampling, and very limited! But you can find her gorgeous designs at http://www.vanessabruno.com/ and go to http://www.net-a-porter.com/ to buy some of her clothes!
