3.1 Phillip Lim reveals worldly spring 2008 collection
Even though his line was only launched in the fall of 2005, Phillip Lim has already become the darling of the fashion world, creating classic American sportswear for more-affordable-than-average prices. Working with Katayone Adeli and helping launch Development before moving into creating his own line, Lim quickly garnered glowing reviews. In 2006 he won the Women's Designer Rising Star award given by Fashion Group International and recently he won the Council of Fashion Designers of America award for emerging talent in women's wear.
So it was with great anticipation that Lim revealed his spring collection. He said he "wanted to make clothes that were ready for travel," Lim revealed his 3.1 Phillip Lim spring 2008 collection on Sunday September 9th during New York's fashion week, going on now. The show began with Lim favorite, model Irina Lazareanu strolling down the runway in a khaki trench coat, white button down shirt, white harem-style pants, and a large white tie, ready for her safari adventure. Lim continued to wow the audience throughout the show with an exposed zipper mini, "Thriller" style red leather jacket, and a backless cocktail dress.
Clothing came in calm neutrals with loud pops of Crayola yellow and red on jackets, pants, and bags. Each outfit consisted of easy separates. Style.com reported that the collection "made obvious statements about the improvisational nature of dressing on the go." Lim's woman-on-the-go isn't just going from office to bar, she's going from Kenya to St. Tropez to downtown New York, and she doesn't want to bother with fussy clothing or worrying if things will match or not.
