Summer Style Inspiration: Maurizio Pecoraro

Maurizio Pecoraro's Spring/Summer 2011 collection really encompassed a lot of the season's trends in a very wearable way: from bold prints to colorblocking to white-on-white to neutrals...and even – love 'em or leave 'em – the flatforms. I'm really enamored with Maurizio's designs, a collection I missed last fall, and I thought I'd share some of my favorites for you all in case you missed it too!


I love so much about this look – texture, color, shape. It feels very organic and natural.


I love the mix of textures here! The detail in that loose crocheted dress is amazing.


Some bold prints, but I like that the colors are somewhat muted.


The little white dress – how cute is the detailing at the neck?!


The masculinity of the top here is so well off-set by the flowing bottom. It perfectly takes white-on-white up a notch!


Colorblocking with a bit of a twist, I love the additional print on the skirt. This is a little unexpected and totally chic.


I'm obsessed with this top. The draping is absolutely gorgeous, isn’t it?


And lastly, the midi-skirt; I love the nipped waist and the detailing at the top here, too!


Do you find yourself revisiting the season’s runway for style inspiration?
