Narciso Rodriguez was arguably one of the week's true high points and highlights, and he proved yet again why he is so well respected, beloved, and well, almost deified. His breathtaking collection was a complete evolution and affirmation of his philosophy, perfectly played out and thoughtfully conceived. At the core were all the signatures we have come to identify with the man- his flattering and pleasing neutral color palette (black, ivory, tan), the athletically inspired zip front jackets, corseted tops, molded to the body architectural shapes, and of course, dreamy evening gowns. However, this time around- he surprised and delighted with the welcome addition of pleasing pastels such as pale pink, blue, and mint (if anybody can make pastels look chic, it is Narciso), and the welcome addition of fullness by adding tiers and ruffles to his skirts, coats, jackets, and dresses. But since it's Narciso, the ruffles still remained architectural and somehow elegant and restrained. No small feat.
