Rebecca Taylor Fall 2012

Hannah Weil — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 14:15:38 PST

Rebecca's girl is both an homage to '90s grunge and a fresh-faced street-styler. The Fall collection marries the designer's signature sweet side with darker territory, at least where texture and color are concerned. Rebecca's palette is decidedly moody in deep brown, burgundy, and black on leather, herringbone, wool, and velvet layers. Then she counters with cool-girl silhouettes; layers are in perfect proportion - for every slick leather layer, there's also a sheer-chiffon sleeve, slinky sequins, or abstract print. There's a lightness to counter the severity of her colors; she still homes in on that girlie factor we love in a pretty peplum top, a sexier snake-print halter dress, or ultra-femme sheer pleats. Like front-rower Olivia Palermo, this girl is something of a mix-master who's got as much femininity as she does cool-girl edge.

Trends: Rich texture in leather, velvet, and jacquard; sequins, peplum, heavy layers, and exotic print.
Colors: Brown, gray, and black with just a pop of purple and blue.
Key Piece: We love the open sheer-chiffon pleats on the gorgeous full-length print dress; also the cool factor of a leopard coat done in ombre.
Accessories: Metallic ankle-strap heels, fur-adorned ankle boots, chain-strap crossbody bags, and oversize leather satchels.
Who Would Wear It: Street-chic celebs like Nicky Hilton would rock the moto-style jackets and edgy layers.

Celeb Style: Kristin Cavallari's Glamorous Holiday Frock

Hannah Weil — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 08:36:29 PST

We've all got holiday dressing on our brain right now, so we couldn't help but notice that Kristin Cavallari's look from last night's Rebecca Taylor store opening would be equally fitting for one of our own seasonal fetes. With delicate ruffles and a rich holiday-hued palette, Kristin's little Rebecca Taylor dress feels perfectly festive, but it's not just a great dress that makes it all work. A dramatic deep rouge lip and face-framing waves amp up the glamour, while nude pumps and a coordinating clutch temper the style for a modern effect. Feeling inspired? Shop our editors' picks to channel Kristin's gorgeous holiday style.

Who Wore It Better? Alexa and Kirsten in Rebecca Taylor's Pretty Floral Dress

Hannah Weil — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 09:18:20 PDT

Looks like two of our favorite style stars had their eyes on the same Fall frock. Alexa Chung and Kirsten Dunst both gave Rebecca Taylor's floral print chiffon dress ($425) their respective style spin. Alexa outfitted hers with a pair of the coveted sparkly Miu Miu booties for New York Fashion Week while Kirsten paired the dress with suede ankle boots and a blazer for a stroll around NYC's East Village. We love both interpretations, but we're leaving it up to you to decide who's most Fab. Which of the fashion-savvy looks do you prefer?
