j.mendel: one of my highest revered designers. his spring 2012 collection was inspired by Dorothy Draper, a pioneer in American interior design (early 1900s). vertical stripes in bold color combinations, cool geometry, belted waists, clean silhouettes, slits all the way up to there (!) and sharp pleating were consistent themes throughout.
