Tory Burch and Nanette Lepore

Tory Burch was also feeling the pervasive 1970s theme during her spring/summer 2011 show. The designer's collection had a decidedly '70s aesthetic with flared-bottom pants, billowy blouses and platform wedges. Even the color scheme--navy, bold orange and gold and plenty of brown--exuded a '70s feel.

Standout pieces included a navy mid-calf length a-line skirt with an orange-and-ivory sunburst pattern, as well as a rich camel leather mid-calf skirt topped with a bright pumpkin blouse.

Front Row Roll Call: Kanye West, Anna Wintour.

Nanette Lepore's collection also had a vintage feel. High-waisted retro bikinis in colorful floral patterns shared the runway with a glittery gold mini-shirtdress that had a decidedly disco feel. A long, flowing light pink embellished dress looked so comfy and airy--perfect for afternoon cocktails on a hot summer day.

Front Row Roll Call: Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Kristin Chenoweth, Aida Turturro, Stanley Tucci, Natasha Bedingfield.
