Some of this year’s runway trends included bright colors, lace, retro looks from the 40s, 60s and 70s, bold ethnic patterns, shimmer and ethereal white with origami details.

I’m excited to post some photos from an amazing afternoon I spent at DC Rental with my good friend and industry colleague, Liz, designing tabletop ideas inspired by some of this year’s fashion trends.

First up, two beautiful looks that I think would be perfect for a Spring or Summer luncheon, perhaps to honor the bride and her bridesmaids or to celebrate the fahsionista in your life.
