Pastel is the new black. At least for this spring. And Tibi’s proposal for this season is more pastel, elegant and breezy than many others I have seen lately. Amy Smilovic, the person behind the label, after graduating from the University of Georgia, decided to follow her husband to Asia and pursue her dream of creating a new fashion label. And the results justified her.

Her collection for Spring 2012 is definitely one of my favorites: chic, simple, clean and elegant. Soft and luxurious fabrics that highlight the best parts of any woman’s silhouette and are adaptable to various personal styles. And what about her inspiration?

modernizing and refreshing the nineties silhouette with streamlined cuts, sportswear elements and asymmetrical hems in natural fiber fabrics contrasting with modern techno textiles.
