Creative Director Raul Melgoza debuted LUCA LUCA’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection at New York Fashion Week at Lincoln Center. Melgoza’s collection is inspired by the adventures to be discovered in the deep woods—the beauty, the color, the fantasy. Raul has created a sophisticated forest-inspired look by juxtaposing fabrics such as leather, suede and lace to create texture and dimension.

{THE SHOW!}

Minus the many black evening dresses, Raul wasn't afraid to play with color. Models strutted the runway in bright looks. We saw lots of contrasting fabrics like brocade tops paired with lace skirts and leather pieces in fall hues. This Fall the Luca Luca lady is sophisticated and chic but not afraid to play with color. We got a great sense of warmth on this freezing cold day!
