L.A.M.B. Spring 2015

After a three-year absence, celebrity music star Gwen Stefani brought her L.A.M.B. line back to New York Fashion Week. For spring/summer 2015, the international rocker seemingly sourced her global jaunts as inspiration for her collection entitled “The New Nomad.”

This line stays true to form of past L.A.M.B. collections, grounded by their customary trousers and jumpsuits. However, this time around, Gwen and Co. played with more cuts and colors. The look is African, bohemian, and indigenous. The base color palette is orange, fuchsia, and ice blue, blended together in ikat prints, tribal patterns, and indigenous designs reminiscent of the untouched landscapes of exotic locales. There is a full range of skirts and dresses, offered in midi, knee, and floor lengths. The crop tops, sweatshirts, and jackets are bold separates that effortlessly evoke a luxe aesthetic. The bags easily transition with you as you go from city dweller to global jet setter. There is even a touch of menswear influence, highlighted by an ice blue suit paired with a printed top. The entire line comes together for a woman who wants to look as though she marches to the beat of her own drum, off the beaten path, but her style is still impeccably put together.

Backstage, Gwen stated, “we are all so inspired by each other’s cultures, and how we influence each other.” Outside of the L.A.M.B. presentation, Fashion Reverie’s own Kayla Nicole caught up guests, including actress Daniele Brooks of Orange Is The New Black, and asked them about their own sense of style.
