For Fall 2010, Tibi designer Amy Smilovic played with balanced opposities, according to show notes, but I think the result was all about harmony. First, the hair: Each model had a glorious poof of long, luxurious, super curly locks floating atop her head that had a fun and flirtatious flower-child feel. Then, the color palette, a beautiful wearable mix of navy, mauve, black, burgundy, plus plenty of Tibi's trademark prints to keep things lively. The clothes were mostly separates, like ladylike bow-tied blouses pairs with tweed shorts, or cozy sweaters layered over high-waist trousers. Accessories were understated yet still managed to pack a punch, like a leather fanny pack, 5-inch platform slingback clogs, and colorful opaque tights. And let's not forget the charming cocktail dresses and sequin embellishments (another trend that isn't going anywhere soon). It was another successful, crowd-pleasing collection from a contemporary brand that doesn't take itself too seriously. I'll take one of everything, thank you very much.
