Known for his love of entertaining as much as he is for his mantra that fashion should always be "gorgeous and colorful and fun," Isaac Mizrahi succeeded in injecting his Spring 2010 collection with all of those elements, ending up with, in essence, mobster womenswear inspired by the fifties.
The mobster garb in Isaac Mizrahi's Spring 2010 collection includes top hats and boxy pants, which bring to mind visions of mobsters such as the impeccably-attired Bugsy Seigel leisurely puffing on a cigar outside of the Palms in Las Vegas.
