Calvin Klein-Spring 2007 RTW collection

The ready to wear collection, designed by Francisco Costa, still echoes of the very minimalism that made Calvin Klein famous the world over. While most of the pieces in the collection consisted of neutral colors such as black or white, I found it quite refreshing to see that there were splashes of color in some of the pieces. One outfit modeled consisted of a grey top and a yellow skirt, there was a yellow outfit that consisted of a sheer, billowy top with a matching skirt, and one outfit was a muted green(maybe olive green). The collection overall was very modern, minimal, with a variety of fabrics. It's also sporty, with what's been described by style.com as a Blade Runner quality. Makeup artist Pat McGrath, said of the makeup look she created for the models* that since the collection had a sportiness to it, she derived the makeup look(the zinc across the eyes)from footballers and the look has a futuristic quality to it. I, personally, like the look as it does have a futuristic look to it. I also like the color she used for the makeup too, so that helps.

*If you want to see pictures of the makeup look, I suggest you go to style.com and select Calvin Klein Spring 2007 Ready-to-Wear under backstage.
