Mary Katrantzou Resort 2016

Athens-born and London-based designer Mary Katrantzou has been a favorite of mine for several years now. I wore my first dress of hers back in 2013 and have continued to collect pieces from each collection, as her use of color and print resonates deeply within me.

Known for her revolutionary use of digitally printed textiles, Mary continues that theme in a bold way with her Resort 2016 collection – perhaps my favorite collection of hers to date. The Mary Katrantzou Resort 2016 collection explores a kaleidoscope of colors and straightforward graphic designs. Of course, Mary throws in some prints as well, mainly via botanical illustrations.

I first picked up this jumper from the collection, which has proven to be a very versatile, casual, easy-to- wear piece (also available in t-shirt form). Then, I couldn’t resist this rainbow skirt. You may have noticed that I wore it a few days ago for New York Fashion Week (NYFW). The rainbow of colors combined with the fluid movement of the skirt make it an eye-catching, happiness-inducing piece.

Top 25: Mary Katrantzou Resort 2016 Edit

Given the outstanding nature of the collection, it was hard to narrow it down. But here, you’ll find our top 25 selections from the collection – a wide array of daytime, evening, casual, and dressy pieces – all colorful, all bold, and all sure to delight your senses.

 

Stay tuned this week for some New York Fashion Week coverage and more. Plus, I’ll be traveling abroad for more fashion month action.

Be sure to follow along on social media (@carriec on Instagram; wearwherwell on Snapchat) for live, behind the scenes glimpses of it all.

Have a great week!

    Love! Her stuff is so fun and colorful – I feel like it’d be impossible not to be happy when wearing it! Is your purse recent? I love the color!

    1. Carrie says:

      Whitney – that’s the truth! It’s hard for me to not be happy in these colors. 🙂

      Regarding the Chanel… yes, it’s new. 🙂 I first spotted it when I was in Vegas in October. I never again saw this exact one anywhere – until I went to Vegas again in January. So, I figured it was meant to be. 😉

      Thanks!
