Resort Collections were originally aimed at the wealthy who would escape from cold climates and head to the sunshine. Hence the titles of Cruise or Resort. The collections arrive in the stores as early as November and hang out until around January. In recent years, resort/ cruise has become much more season-less, full of jackets and multiple layering pieces for those who aren't taking trips, but want to add new pieces in between the Fall and Spring Collections. Where as only top houses would roll out the best of pool side wear at a tropical getaway and evening wear for exclusive gatherings, now contemporary and mid-range labels design for their customers, who likely stick around town and work.
For Resort 2012, the love affair with safety orange and other Crayola brights like Pacific blue, Unmellow Yellow are paired with khaki separates and accessories. Check out the gallery for the best of the neutral and bright pieces from Resort. No matter if your style is Jackie O or Karen O, there's a look for you.
