Brian Wolk and Claude Morais of Ruffian were inspired by the jockey jerseys in Saratoga Springs, a location known for horse racing, where they spent most of the summer. The inspiration is evident in black and white sleeves and diagonal stripes sprawled across colorful jackets.
Color was the standout detail of the collection. Each garment had a silky, luxurious feel and was well-tailored, but the pieces would have been boring if not for the wonderful additions of color. Color blocking was a big part of the show, one of the best looks being a yellow and blue chiffon dress. Silky jackets and blazers also stood out; they're perfect for spring, especially in such bold hues.
My favorite aspect of the show, however, was the colorful strappy heels added to each ensemble. They only added to the looks, the colors of the shoes jazzing up black and white outfits seen at the beginning and end of the show.
Overall, a great show.

I'm currently lusting after those miniskirts and silky jackets. They'd both be beautiful additions to a spring wardrobe.
