New York Fashion Week S/S 2012
Proenza Schouler
It's not easy to strike a balance between ladylike and smoking hot, but Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez seem to have a cool handle on this slippery concept. The shapes from their spring 2012 show could have been pulled right out of Mrs. Cleaver's kitchen in Leave it to Beaver: nipped waists, appropriate below knee lengths, the shoulder just so. But the fabrics - floral fauna, African-esque raffia and sporty netting - rocked the looks out of 1957 and into a club near you. The striped printed leather patchwork shorts were awesome, as were the handbags, whose print effect was somewhere between pebbles and alligator scales.
