DSquared² Pre-Fall 2012

DSquared2’s pre-fall collection is all about combining preppy refinement with rebellious fun. The brilliant twin designers, Dean and Dan Caten, take us back to the swinging 60s where cropped cigarette pants, argyle cardigans, body hugging dresses, pencil skirts, tweed miniskirts, velvet tuxedo jackets, and incredible beehives were aplenty. I’m loving the masculine ensembles just as much as the polished ones and inspired to start cranking out bow ties!

    I love the tailored and updated takes on these otherwise modern sihlouettes! With great textiles and bright colours, this really makes these polished ensembles stand out. I would kill to have my work wardrobe come straight from this collection. They are channeling exactly what J Crew does so well and it’s great to see them do it so successfully. Beautiful job Dsquared2!

    I LOVE this collection!! I would snatch up every piece if I had the chance! I love the green and blue color scheme.
    My favorites are the blue dress and the grey tux! I’m also loving all the tweed and is that a houndstooth print top? I think houndstooth is my favorite print of all time.

    Love dsquared2, but I have to say, I have a suspicion that I’m always more enamored of the styling than the individual pieces. Not that it matters much, I’m still a huge fan.

    A great collection, very colourful and wearable. I like the retro vibe as I have been watching Pan Am and Mad Men which this reminds me of. Am actually a bit surprised that this is DSquared!
