Proenza Schouler designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez made a major case for leather as the new springtime essential. The perforated texture of this jacket lightens the weight and the attitude-simply stunning.

The slinky separates spotted on Narciso Rodriguez's runway were some of the most beautiful pieces of his career. The expertly draped dresses mixed with menswear-inspired toppers made for looks that were both lovely and fierce.

From it's muted shades of gray to its cascading pleats, I love everything about this gentle spring skirt suit. Plus, the additions of strappy sandals and a simple hair ribbon add a feminine touch.

Altuzarra's first look had a slightly equestrian silhouette, cinched at the waist with an exaggerated hip. The addition of a casually ticking stripe was so cool. And what about those peep-toelace-up oxfords?
