Tanya Taylor

Tanya Taylor is my favorite up and coming designer! I am obsessed with her Spring 2013 Line. It is full or colorful flowers, gorgeous coral and beautiful silhouettes. She creates amazing vintage inspired modern clothes.

Here is a brief biography of her;
Growing up her family was very experimental with fashion. Her father would travel all over the world and bring back fabrics. She was an 80's child so of course she had the crazy 80's style.
Tanya Taylor went to McGill University where she studied finance. She took an introductory of fashion course at Central Saint Martians in London and later went to study at Parsons. She started an internship at Elizabeth and James and continued to work there after she graduated. For two years she was a special collections women's designer.
Tanya Taylor is now designing under her own name and has show two collections one for fall 2012 and the other for spring 2013. Here is a little peek at each collection.

Spring 2013 Collection

Fall 2012 Collection

Tanya Taylor explains to a reporter at The New York Times that she likes “the idea of starting with basics and building them into head-to-toe mismatched looks.”
Her spring collection is filled with pleated swing dresses, butternut-yellow flouncy skirts, floral trousers, Which as she says "are inspired by a woodpecker."
She also has coats that are available at Dagny & Barstow and American Two Shot in Manhattan.
