WWD: Narciso Rodriguez RTW Spring 2012

Rodriguez opened with a black top over white pants, its simple premise turned power statement courtesy of a bold, flapped asymmetric waistband. He then increased the intensity of offbeat geometry, stripes, bands and squares going this way and that, hard lines keeping company with gentle curves. For the most part this resonated boldly in plays of black, white, sand and glorious water tones, even if, midshow, a few looks crossed over from complicated to confusing.
