Pamela Love

The Pamela Love for J.Crew exclusive capsule collection is now available to shop online! The three-piece collection designed by the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Award runner-up showcases the designer's penchant for effortless, everyday style via a vintage-inspired jean jacket adorned with cool brass pins, the coolest pair of patched jeans, and a buttery soft Southwestern-inspired belt. "The collaboration was inspired by what my friend and I wear almost on a daily basis," said Pamela. Check out the slideshow to see and shop it now before it all sells out!

Because we just can't get enough of Pamela Love's gorgeous Fall 2012 collection, here's a peek at the CFDA-nominee's most recent lookbook. Lensed by Love's good friend — and Dossier founder — Skye Parrott, the lookbook offers an up-close look at all the want-now cuffs, turquoise spike earrings, and geometric collar necklaces that have made Love a favorite collaborator for designers as diverse as Marchesa and Topshop. Click through to see all the drool-worthy pieces, modeled by French belle Camille Rowe, right here.

>> J.Crew's collaborations with Joseph Altuzarra, Pamela Love, and Creatures of the Wind will make separate retail debuts in the coming weeks and months, but you can order the Altuzarra capsule online at Jcrew.com this Thursday. The Altuzarra capsule then hits J.Crew's 5th Avenue store Monday, April 23; Pamela Love's capsule will be available May 17 and Creatures of the Wind's on June 14.

Altuzarra told Vogue his striped collection was inspired by the clothes Jean Seberg wore in Breathless and by pictures of "Brigitte Bardot walking around St-Tropez in espadrilles and a slouchy boy's sweater." Pamela Love — a jewelry designer by trade — created clothing for the collaboration as well: a shrunken jacket, a pair of distressed jeans, and a belt. Shane Gabier and Chris Peters, who design Creatures of the Wind, created a colorblocked twinset and a floral Summer dress.

While there's no information yet on how much the pieces from Love and Creatures of the Wind will cost, Altuzarra's collection is priced between $145 for a striped dress and up to $345 for a pair of platform wedge espadrilles.

Standing in front of industrial pipes and exposed lights, models at Pamela Love's Fall 2012 collection were dressed up like steelworkers, complete with smudged faces and undone overalls. They were also draped in sculptural, geometric jewelry that referenced architectural beams, and the deco-inspired shapes brought to mind the post-Depression '30s. The raw, masculine setting added a toughness to the collection, but imagine how good these will look with a flowy white dress come Spring.

• Trends: Architectural details, deco, arm bands.
• Key Piece: We loved the statement necklaces.
• Who Would Wear It: Pamela Love is having a moment, and we see downtown cool girls eating this up — think Erin Wasson, Cara Delevingne, and Zoe Kravitz.

>> The models were dressed to look like smudge-faced metal workers, and the setting — complete with steaming pipes and industrial lighting — made to feel like the inside of a factory. The product? Pamela Love's strong, intensely sculptural jewelry. Following the architectural trend that is emerging for Fall, many of Love's pieces loosely referenced steel beams for building. Countering this notion of industry was the use of turquoise, which added an earthiness to the collection as well as a welcome jolt of color.
