While "Trekkie Couture" may not sound appealing, Todd Lynns Spring 2010 collection is surprisingly compelling and cohesive.
The catwalk saw models in androgynous, sharply tailored suits worn by both men and women, in gradient tones of white, gray and black, strong shoulders and silhouettes.
In particular, a collaboration with jeweler Shaun Leane for Todd Lynns Spring 2010 line resulted in two fiercely fashionable jackets with metal-plated shoulders thrusting upwards from the fabric of the jacket as a sort of personal body-armor.
Todd Lynns Spring 2010 collection is one of this seasons best examples of how to successfully integrate inspiration into your garments while still making them desirable, wearable pieces.
