Jason Wu Spring 2013 Runway Review

While many of the looks would prove too risqué for the likes of Michelle Obama – at least as styled on the runway – there was much to love in the pencil skirts, embroidered leather, lace accented blouses, and printed trench coats, no matter a woman’s age. Harness-like straps, which we also saw at BCBG, are worth singling out and reflected the designer ability to carefully balance bondage-inspired touches with prim and proper femininity. This was best evidenced in the gowns that closed out the show, which paired harness straps with lots of tulle for a dazzling effect that oozed red carpet glamour.
