letter from the editor

The start of a new season brims with excitement: new trends, new muses and the possibility of a new you. spring’s sensual mood is about much more than sex appeal; it is about strength, passion and a

confident attitude. Discover SS15’s most exciting new looks, as our fashion team picks the key trends and reveals the hero purchases that will work for you this season and beyond, and the accessories that

will update your look in an instant.

There are generally two kinds of fashion people-those who like the crisp weather of fall and those who like the warmth of spring. The fans of fall can’t wait to wrap up in layers of sweaters and fur at

the earliest sign of a chill, and on the first balmy day of spring, fair-weather devotees sprint outdoors in light-as-air dresses. I have always considered myself a “fall guy”. EVERY DAY At those sunny des-tinations, I dressed thinking about the lovely spring and summer clothes that we had just saw from great designers. The light layers of chiffon and cloudlike cottons were exactly what I wanted for the upcoming season. At the spring fashion shows, designers also sent out skirts, dresses, and shorts in

up-to-there styles paired with tiny cropped jackets, as seen in Mini to the Max. If you prefer sexy with an edge, the futuristic designs shown on a number of the runways will have you looking forward to

the selections in Altered States.

Though I ultimately had to return to Chicago and my cold-weather clothes, I now have a renewed appreciation of women who long to dress in sheer, weightless fabrics and leave their legs bare with

nothing but the sun to keep them warm.
