Zac Posen described his pre-fall collection as "Lewis Carroll meets Paloma Picasso". The former expressed through whimsical prints of hopping bunnies, mushrooms, and swans and the latter via bow-front blouses, tailored wide leg trousers, and the models' beauty moment—pulled back hair with red lips.

Zac Posen Ditches Hollywood for Urban Hipsters with New Saks Collection
Zac Posen is launching a lower-priced bridge collection exclusively with Saks Fifth Avenue next spring. According to Posen, the line—called Z Spoke—has an "urban hipster quality." He added that he could see the collection on Lower East Side girls.
That's a long way from Posen's designer collection, which is heavy on dramatic party clothes and over-the-top evening dresses. Posen says it's not a change of design philosophy as much as an answer to retailers' demand for more American sportswear—meaning he needs to sell some clothes.
Z Spoke will retail from $78 (for a t-shirt) to $675 (for a knit dress) and launch in 17 Saks stores on the same floor as Tory Burch and Elie Tahari.
“To me, it’s more appropriate to build a whole brand and collection around this price point," said Posen. "Chic sportswear should be at this price point. Designer dresses and cocktail pieces should be at a more expensive price point.” Zac Posen's designer collection retails for $900 to upwards of $12,000.
