Alice McCall Resort 2019 – Review
INSPIRED BY: Designer Alice McCall’s ode to the perennial party girl – the collection sourced trends from the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s in a disco-themed mashup that focused on fun and flirty frocks just as suited for a garden party as a night at Studio 54.
POP-CULTURE NOD: Chloe Grace Moretz holding hands with her mystery beau at the Veuve Cliquot Polo Classic at Liberty State Park. Think Mad Men’s Sally Draper all-grown-up, channeling Twiggy in her heyday.
WEAR IT TO: Your pre-Coachella DJ gig at the Ace Hotel and Swim Club in Palm Springs, before putting on your flower crown and rocking out to Queen Bey.
FIRST READ: McCall stayed true to her signature pretty, feminine aesthetic, hovering between bohemian and more tailored looks, with a focus on playful eclecticism. The popping color palette screamed the fashion equivalent of a Baked by Melissa cupcake store.
BEST LOOK: A shimmery gold bralette with stacked ruffled sleeves, teamed with a high-waisted tiered mini skirt.
EYE-CATCHING ACCENTS: That 70’s Show-inspired prints, cheeky sheer lace dresses, billowy sleeves and ruffles galore combined to deliver a lineup sure to be rapidly snapped-up by the brand’s loyal devotees.
OVERHEARD COURTSIDE: “Those abs are making me regret drinking my bodyweight in white wine at the party last night.”
COLOR WHEEL: Lavender, mint, powder pink, gold, magenta, cream, sage, black, red, blush, tangerine.
