One time As Four designer, Kai Kühne, closed Berlin Fashion Week this season with the showing of his Spring 2010 collection. About a year ago Kühne received funding from Markus Hoefels, a German venture capitalist who is known for having backed Proenza Schouler, and the designer has been steadily expanding ever since.

Although our focus may have shifted to the Men's Spring 2010 shows, the Resort 2010 collections are still coming in. Marni's resort offering was revealed yesterday and shows off Consuelo Castiglioni’s signature prints and let-loose silhouettes. That said, Castiglioni never fails to gives us a much needed dose of intellectual fashion optimism. This collection is full of items that Marni fans will love--boxy printed blouses, wide leg trousers, statement necklaces and irreverent footwear. Check out our favorites in the gallery below.
