Tracy Reese


Although I'm not attending her presentation in the upcoming Fashion Week, I'm still a die hard Tracy Reese fan! This is why I have to pay some type of homage to this wonderful designer. A native of Detroit, Tracy has flourished in the Fashion Industry since her collection launch in 1998.  Now 12 years and 48 seasons later, Tracy has three brands (one which launched in 98 as well):  The Tracy Reese Collection, Plenty by Tracy Reese, Frock by Tracy Reese, also Plenty by Tracy Reese for Keds.....a collaboration that was made for a line of footwear.

As I browsed through pics (http://www.tracyreese.com/) of her Pre-Spring 2011 collection, I was thoroughly amazed (as if I would be expect anything less)!! First I have to say that I love the color palates she has chosen for the collection. Safflower, Crimson, Navy, and Camel were my favorite color choices among the collection. There were a few pieces that seemed to be safari inspired, such as a camel color 4 pocket skirt, that I fell completely head over "fashion" heels for. I love the femininity of the collection as a whole and the mixing of prints was simply superb!! The collection mixes floral with stripes, plaid with floral, and my ABSOLUTE favorite mix..... leopard with sailor stripes (TRULY AMAZING)!!!

I leave you with a picture of two gowns from The Tracy Reese Collection Spring '09!
P.S. I cant wait to dress someone in one of  her gowns!! Its soon to come!!
