Taking on a preppy, botanical vibe this season, the Tucker Resort 2013 collection is bursting with youthful ensembles. Designer Gaby Basora has been able to gauge her market and their wants through sales at her recently opened SoHo store in New York.
While her customers still adore her patterned blouses and dresses, they also crave effortless jumpsuits and leggy floral pants. Everything from breezy bell bottoms to slinky cigarette pants have been decked out in garden-clad motifs. Bold botanicals and chic florals continue to flourish on the runways and retail stores alike. The statement setting ensembles have been paired with bold headband turbans, strappy printed sandals and punchy red lips.
Photographed against picturesque skies and retro astro-turf, the Tucker Resort 2013 collection exudes an effortless picnic prepster ambiance.
