Fashion Week: Harlan Bel

I featured Harlan Bel as one to watch a month or so ago, so I was very excited to go to the show. And let me tell you, after an otherwise lame day of some shows that I won't even be mentioning on my blog (boring!), Harlan Bel did not disappoint.  I adore the bold graphic nature of the pieces, in cut and with the pleated draping and ruffleless tiers. She has also continued to feature what is becoming a  signature of futuristic leiderhosen style unattached suspenders (honestly, not sure how to describe them, but wouldn't they look cool over a simple white T-shirt as an accessory?).
The look of Harlan Bel is sexy in an unassuming way, strong but still with a feel of innocence, and modern modern modern. I am a big fan of dressing for my mood...and yeah, sometimes I wanna be eclectic and mix patterns and vintage pieces...but sometimes I feel focused, bold, and strong, and on those days, Harlan Bel would be perfect.
So I said she was one to watch, and boy do I have my eye on her. You should too.
