Diane von Furstenberg's cruise 2012 collection was set against a graphic backdrop—fitting as the collection itself was graphic and inspired by street culture. Prints! Colors! So much green and orange! Ladies, if you like wearing comfortably slouchy togs that are also effortlessly chic, DVF's got you covered.

Burberry Prorsum showed its resort 2012 collection (or pre spring, or cruise—really, there are a million names for one wee season) today in its New York headquarters. The collection was colorful—as expected—but also quite playful.

The traditional Burberry silhouette—trenchcoats (both fitted and double breasted), parkas, pencil skirts, and dresses—were given a new look for the season, courtesy of fabrics, prints, and colors.

It's officially resort/cruise season—not in stores, but in showings. It's actually the best time for editors to see the clothes as these are the most summery collections designers will dish out. Of course, they won't hit stores until October or November—right in time for winter holidays and cruises.

YSL held its Cruise 2012 show today in an intimate show at the House of Venison gallery in Manhattan. The clothes were a very literal take on the nautical name of the season: anchors, red, white, and blue, high-waisted sailor detailing, all topped off with high floral wedges. A very bright and fun collection to see on steamy Wednesday morning.
