True to his style, Michael van der Ham has presented a beautiful collection full of interesting juxtapositions of fabric, color, and pattern. Although these unique combinations are the designer's signature, this time around he has managed to push himself even further. The designs are bolder and have a more optimistic vibe. Along with the wild looks that he is known for, van der Ham added ensembles that are more practical for the everyday woman. Of course, they're only for the everyday woman who isn't afraid of bright colors and prints. These looks have the same feeling as that of the rest of the collection, yet prints and colors are mixed via separates, rather than being combined into one garment. I love this evolution from the designer's Spring/Summer 2011 collection; this collection proves that Michael van der Ham has become a stronger designer, more confident in his skills and having a greater ability to refine his designs to make them look sharper and more professional. Past designs certainly showed promise, and now here is the result we have been waiting for.
