Can DVF ever do any wrong? The queen of the classic wrap dress constantly re-invents every season. In her Resort 2011 collection, she showed a mostly nude/black collection with a primary focus on patterned stripes. Diane stuck to figure-flattering clothes with pieces like high-waisted shorts, silk rompers, and 1920’s style drop-waisted dresses.
