Isabel Marant Fall 2011 Collection

Occasionally, I look at a collection, and the clothes have the power to generate a real emotion inside of me. The latest collection from Isabel Marant has done that. What was the emotion? I truly felt a sense of relaxation while I explored this fabulous collection. Pictures supplied by Vogue.com - visit for full collection

This outfit strikes me as an outfit that could be worn by a single, high-power executive woman who lives in New York or a married, suburban stay-at-home mom buying groceries. The relaxed fit of the pants and the slightly baggy shirt looks really comfortable. The fabulous shoes and jacket take this outfit to the next level.

This outfit is totally gorgeous. The shirt has a fabulous combination of blues that create a one-of-a-kind look. The fitted pants accentuate the model's natural feminine shape, and would make any woman's body look amazing. I really love the diamond-like studs on the pant's pockets, because they add a sense of glam that you might not even notice if you didn't look closely at the pants. The jacket is one that any woman can wear, and the shoes are completely fantastic.

This sexy little dress is simple yet extremely classy. The dress's unique pattern really accents its simple shape. Having the dress be so short also allows the eye to enjoy the fabulous boots.

I chose to analyze this outfit because I absolutely adore the jacket. It's voluminous, yet sophisticated. It feels dramatic without being too crazy. The dress underneath is simplistic yet chique. Again, because the dress and jacket are so short, the boots are very visible and draw the eye to them, because they're so dramatic.

This all-black ensemble is one that would give any woman wearing it total confidence. The skin-tight pants truly show off the model's shape, and the black necklace adds a interesting texture. The boots look fabulous in motion because of the strings hanging off of them, and they add a feeling of drama.

Some people may look at this dress and think it's boring. I disagree! Yes, it seems like there isn't anything that makes this dress super spectacular, because it is so simple. However, I love its simplicity. The long vee-neck adds some interesting texture to the front of the dress, and I think the outfit as a whole (including the fabulous shoes) is extremely sophisticated and classy.

I love this dress because I love the Native American feel it has. The clothes of the Native Americans must have inspired this dress, because it really mirrors that look. I love that Isabel Marant has created a collection that really honors the fabulous clothing of the Native American people by taking their basic ideas and interpreting it in a fashion way. The boots also match the dress perfectly, which ties the whole outfit together.

I will complete my analysis of this collection with this ensemble, like the last one I critiqued, has a very Native American-esque vibe to it. However, this dress is also extremely high fashion. Its shape is so interesting to look at, and I love the texture added to it by the long dangling strings. Also, the knee-high boots are a modern interpretation of Native American moccasins. Absolutely gorgeous.
