The Tory Burch Resort 2012 Collection features a modern twist on retro-chic with cool printed pants, floor-length floral dresses, fitted jackets and a variety of signature tunics. In addition to the traditional 70s styles, Burch has taken a trip down to the Southwest with the return of warm coral colors like rusty clay red, turquoise, pale yellows and burlap sacks.
With over 50 stores -- including its largest yet on Madison Avenue, which will open in time for New York Fashion Week this fall -- Tory Burch's influence as a designer is not lost on the fashion world. The look she presents in this year's resort collection is relaxed and low-key yet professional. Though unique, Burch's collection epitomizes each of the elements that are up-and-coming this summer: bold prints and textures, floral, and gorgeous color blocking and scarlet accents.
