Fashion Week Backtrack: Show 14? Temperley London Spring 2007
Alice Temperley’s “Nomad” Collection for Spring 2007, took my breath away.
Everything about it was kind of lazy but really together and smart. It just screamed of a relaxing Summer/Spring and was the perfect break in some of the uptight monotony I had been experiencing at some other shows. Going to this show felt like a mini psuedo-vacation, in a way.
It was all so breezy and light, this even extends to the gorgeous earthtone invitations KCD sent out and the fact that there was no waiting in line and the staff members actually seemed pleasant and unhurried. The spectacular sand colored runway had a soft, muslin look and the blaring lights really gave you the feeling that you were in the desert with rays of sun bouncing off of your skin.
I almost expected to see a camel or some other kind of wild creature walk by but instead, I only saw Rachel Zoe and Philip Bloch, who were seated directly in front of me.
The color palette was exotic, afrocentric and earthy consisting of: mushroom, chocolate grey, blush, cream, electric cerise, butter yellow and assorted blues.
There were wide legged linen trousers and cropped waist jackets that played with masculine and feminine. As well as graphic animal intarsia, jackets with overstitched panels, wave tailoring, shorts and jackets with metallic linen bound edges that made the collection dynamic and fresh.

loving the leather jumper. i’m so happy with the designs i’ve seen for spring. can’t wait to play!!
Damn. I am really mad I missed this show now. That outfit with the huge glasses, headscarf and shorts…it is for me.
So tell me, how does La Zoe look in person?
I loved the leather jumper too, it was one of my favorites!
Love ya & Miss ya, miss fly!!!
Kristen, I’m sad you missed it too — I had to go to that one by myself! This collection totally made me want to get a makeover and adopt this look…..and I can totally see you in that headscarf outfit looking so fresh and so clean like you always do!
La Zoe looked old but well groomed. Her wrinkles don’t bother me the way they bother, say, Perez Hilton or some other people. I think she’s pretty but could definitely benefit from some botox and a nap.

You know, I didn’t realize Zoe had all those wrinkles until this picture, and at first I was kind of grossed out. But now that I think about it – GOOD for her for being herself and her age in an industry/world that would normally sneer upon that and cover it up with weekly visits to the Botox doc.
