Lafayette 148 Fall 2011 Collection

I’d head to Lafayette 148 if I was living the life of a high powered business executive or just wanted to be quite fancy for no reason-

You see, one of the hottest trends for Fall 2011 is all about being a lady. From the 40’s through the 70’s from the Mad Men pinup days of the sheath dress to the sharp pantsuit of the disco era, this collection plays ladylike quite well AND offers this trend for the plus size woman putting CHIC in Curvy.Confident.Chic.

Lafayette 148 Fall 2011 Collection

Designer Edward Wilkerson infused Indian influences of his recent visit to abroad to India! Using vegetable dyes, spices, and jewel tones envelope the Fall 2011 collection. The clean lines, animal prints, dramatic furs, and bold hues are all something of note here… You can see all of his inspiration in this collection. I LOVE IT.
