I want to be friends — no, best friends — with Crispin & Basilio designer Donny Barrios. I want his entire Spring '09 collection! It's effortless, feminine, and incorporates the sheer trend with utter perfection. The color palette is another reason this line has me sprung. It has just enough color (orange, teal) and just enough neutrals to balance it out. Flowy sheer blouses are girlie but they're tempered by voluminous shorts. Cropped jackets provide ease to dressy silk gowns. Long vests balance metallic mini skirts. Next Spring is going to be much happier thanks to this collection. Donny, if you're reading this, call me.

I think by far that this was the best collection at LA Fashion Week. I loved every single piece as well. Crispin & Basilio is going to be huge!

4Same here, miz_ayet. That's the first thing I noticed when I read the title.
5see there's something to be said about the designers that show in LA. this is really a wearable collection and i can really see the looks transporting themselves into my wardrobe or my friend's as well. i love the colors and i love how the orange was infused but not over the top. good work!
