The Los Angeles brand's theme of Bon Chic Bon Genre or " good style, good vibe" upholds a French influence for the modern woman that is not only business and workplace inspired but also able to dress up. The Spring 2013 collection recreates the predictable BCBG simple assymetrical designs dresses and suits.

Carmen Marco Valvo is a man of many talents in his ability to create several collections that have become well known in the fashion world. His artistic backround helpedhim to createrefined cocktail dresses, evening gowns, sunglasses, and swimwear. Volvo's Spring 2014 collection brings a futuristic yet chic, high end beach vibe. The black and white patterns along with mesh and fabric choice brings a symmetrical balance that is comfortable to the eye. Valvo attempts to create the image of the "futuristic beach chick" with dresses and swimsuits wetsuit inspired enhancing the female figure. However, the most striking and talked about part of the show was the two toned ombre wigs with blunt bangs to reiterate the futuristic and edgy mood. Rather than using a romantic hairstyle, colors, and fabrics, Valvo takes quite a risk in this collection with a darker and edgy trip to the beach.

As "Fashion's First Lady", Carolina Herrera as become a fashion figure of class with a modern touch. Herrera's Spring 2014 displayed a sophistication with pieces that were ready to walk off the runway to the red carpet. The show seemed to be one big optical illusion with eye popping prints that were bold and dizzy. Karlie Kloss opened the show with a hypnotizing striped skirt and white shirt that announced Herrera's movement of kinetic art in each outfit. Her use of translucent layered fabrics gave a sense of depth and movement within the clothing; however, the collection felt more fall with her use of color and designs. Even though prints were bold and abstract, the fabric still displayed a softness to show Herrera's signature elegance and sophistication.

The metallic detail added a futuristic vibe, which was enhanced with the dark lips and white bobbed hair. Some favorites included the matching skirt and crop top and quilted dresses that gave an image of strength in a punk and futuristic design.
