Countdown to New York Fashion Week: Sneak Peek at Tracy Reese Fall 2010

When I think of a collection by designer, Tracy Reese, visions of beautiful A-line dresses with dainty embellishments and perfect tailoring float through my mind. But the designer, who I had the pleasure of meeting and hanging out with (she's a sweetheart!), is channeling a rural vibe this season. Yes, I said rural.

Glamazons, get ready for a collection of checks, fur, stretch suede and sweater---softened by lingerie. Interesting. Can't wait to see what the line looks like. Glamazons, what do you think of this new direction?

Judging from the sketch, the line will still be sophisticated and feminine but a little more lavish than what we've previously seen. I love the figure-flattering wrap blouse and the luxurious feel of that cropped fur coat. Also, I see slim pants are here to stay. (I say that with a smile).

Check out the sketch and a quote from the designer herself below---and also images from her Spring 2010 collection, which was truly vibrant, ladylike and magical. Kelly Rowland, Keri Hilson, Kim Kardashian and Ciara were only a few of the celebrities who came out to support last season. 

“An eclectic mix of urban and rural style makes for a very modern yet infinitely wearable fall 2010 collection. Rustic Prince of Wales checks, distressed faux fur and stretch suede styles are softened by cosmetic toned lingerie and made cozy by soft alpaca sweaters.” –Tracy Reese, Designer
