Hervé Léger by Max Azria Spring 2012

Possible to re-create the wheel? You bet! Every year I find my self wondering, can Max Azria do it again? Bandage dresses have become as popular as LBD's. Seemingly white t-shirts in the hood, (extremely popular) I find myself over it quickly, the complete saturation and immense knock offs. Spring 2012 collection arrives and I am blown away. What else can one possibly do with a bandage dress, you just wait and see! How refreshing it was not to see egg colored pastels and corals and neons that have been all over the runways this season. The Herve Leger collection did bring the tribal element but, not modern. FUTURISTIC. Like tribal warrior gladiators, models stomped the runway in metallic colored bandage dresses with braided details, ikat print, and gold foil. This collection, didn't cease to amaze me, it exceeded my expectations one band at time!

"We realized that if you wear Hervé Léger, you have to be in shape," explained Lubov backstage after the show. "You know, you lace up tennis shoes, so we started to lace up bodices—and then moved on to ergonomics."


While keeping with the idea of the signature bandage dress, Hervé Léger took an already perfected idea and expanded. Putting a sporty twist on the Fall 2010 collection adding, mesh ribbons and of course, major banding in shades of nudes, as well as ink splashes. But, my most favorite element of the collection were the neoprane jackets and skinny legging like pants, which wearing I'm sure would be the equivalent to waking up with a rock star! To absolutely live for!
