Two looks from Rachel Roy’s Fall ‘08 Line
At the risk of seeming a bit less like a know-it-all editor and more like a respectful fan of fashion (Iâ??m both by the way), Iâ??m going to let Rachel Royâ??s collection speak for itself. Unveiled today, at sunset, at a spacious studio overlooking the Hudson River, the collection breathes a nonchalant elegance while giving a gentle nod to classic Western aesthetics.
Although several styles come trimmed with colorful feathers or edged with Navajo patterns, never do her richly-hued separates veer toward Pocahontas territory. â??I donâ??t do costume,â?? Roy said while greeting her many guests, and excitedly pointed out the suede booties she collaborated with Manolo Blahnik on. As for who helped her whip together the feathery accentsâ??from wide ruffled collars to dainty speared broochesâ??Roy gave credit her creative team â??and lots of interns.â?? To see their handiwork and hers, gaze on.
