Resort collections aren’t always about breezy living and far-flung wanderlust. This season, designers also flaunted a love affair with stripes in vibrant fluorescent hues à la artist Dan Flavin. Dior’s John Galliano kicked off the festivities with a lavish ode to Millicent Rogers in colorfully streaked blouses and skirts. Jonathan Saunders, Hervé Léger and others soon followed, tackling the rainbow palette in ribbon patterns. So get electric, and relish a little Flavin flavor.
