SWIMMING POOL BLUE, PINK FLAMINGOS AND PIN-UP GIRLS

The color for next summer…IT’S SO BLUE…and the new name “swimming pool blue”…sounds like good life…

Holly Fulton got it as well, the BLUE. The inspiration for her new s/s 2013 RTW collection came from a trip to LA, where she was for the first time earlier this year: “I was really struck by the saccharine optimism that permeates the place.”

The American Dream, it is back…! The pin-up girl, swimming pools…pink flamingos, lemon yellows and Sunset Boulevard, Instagram light and a skater girl.

The 60’s skater girl superstar Patti McGee was her muse (first professional female skateboarder in history). A blue-eyed blonde with a dream, fearless to compete against the boys, her bouffant of peroxide hair and a squeaky-clean sex appeal, the starting point for the whole collection.

And here they are, my favorite pieces from the new Holly Fulton collection for s/s 2013.
