Get ready to go Banana's for... Rachel Zoe's Debut Line. The look book has arrived and I could D.I.E. The boho-glam, the 70's style silk blouses with bows and tiered ruffle dresses, that's the Zoe we know, but in an inspired turn of events, Rachel has decided to go in a slightly different direction. Though you can almost always count on Rachel to show up in a bold yet loose one shoulder dress, her line seems to lean in another direction. Rachel's line is filled with ultra tailored looks with a slight androgynous feel and surprisingly not overstocked with fur. It's no secret Rachel would rather die twice than be buried in anything but vintage and her new signature collection radiates with fresh pieces that scream vintage with a modern kiss. It's filled with great-looking skirt-suits with bubble hems, long, lean pantsuits, and uh-mazing shift dresses.
The collection, a collaboration with manufacturer Li & Fung, is the first that Zoe herself has designed. Rachel describes the collection as “uptown chic and downtown cool infused with Parisian elegance and London street style.” She recently shared with Woman's Wear Daily “I’d imagine everybody is expecting something from me that’s kind of a seventies, uber boho-glam kind of thing, and, you know, very accessorized. And it's not.” The collection which will also feature bags, flats, boots, and of course HEELS is appropriately titled "The Rachel Zoe Collection." The pieces display some of the best tailoring one can hope for in RTW.
The line is rumored to be priced from $250 to $700 and although no retailers have yet to be confirmed, Zoe plans to have the pieces on the shelves of specialty and department stores soon.
Something Extra: According to RealEstalker Rachel Zoe and hubby Rodger Berman have packed up her designer dresses, truck loads of accessories and moved out of their $12,500/per month leased one bedroom condo in the extremely posh and exclusive Sierra Towers in Beverly Hills. Word is they are now renting a 7,185 square foot home which is walking distance from Rodeo Drive. The home is 5 bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, which will be plenty of room for them and their new little addition.
