Naoki Takizawa?s translucent dress intrigues the viewer by the model?s underlying body, and J. Mendel?s elegant chiffon piece, is pretty and sophisticate.

These over the top, fantastical fashions are still in for spring of next year. McQ?s dress resembles pop art with the bold colors and random design, whereas Katy Rodriguez uses bold neutrals to ensemble this fancy dress.

Suitable for Earth Day next April 22, Akiko Ogawa?s two-piece is en vogue for the eco-friendly celebration. Nior?s simple shirt-dress is a classy alternative with a high-waist belt.
