New York Fashion Week Spring Summer 2011
Who: Temperley London
What it made us think of: Guinevere in the 1970s with some edge.
What we liked: Harnesses, metallics, ruffles, lace, sweaters that look like chain-mail, bead work, bags, long dresses
What we didn't: That I won't be able to afford one of those cool harness pieces.

Who: Tibi
What it made us think of: A collection inspired by buyers
What we liked: Laser cut fabrics, pretty dresses
What we didn't: The toning down of Tibi's typical quirky cute for a more laid-back, easy-to-sell look; too minimalistic![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKPKR969m9sEsb8fApf0bUgBiM6YSjJlH44u4KK79CKwsKgthn2Eqoz7ey0UfhwuTdktrASN9IubIOBXjlVDv9L7IH3QuHNojCVnEc_KmU65kJPDpgy8T8kjhx-DPmnzmMtwjYkWC6TWQ/s400/Tibi+New+York+Fashion+Week+Spring+Summer+2011.jpg)
Who: Bensoni
What it made us think of: The seventies if they had been removed to their own jungle planet in another galaxy. (But not quite as exciting as that sounds).
What we liked: Long, flowing, pretty things
What we didn't: Some pieces didn't flow or chopped up the body. Missed some of Bensoni's fun and girlishness from the past.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsBm9lMdgwiZE8lV2Fubk1rbqGvec_mDO7nE_n95ttsQkWK6f6LwAs0Lei5GW3Iwws1ldCipPWTYUZ_uwecKJSLRvDBnLH7ZDVMb9zwZcNmMVHusMwilFq3_Vu-BRNB7zNbaUQczUdHWI/s400/Bensoni+New+York+Fashion+Week+Spring+Summer+2011.jpg)
