Lands End Canvas Spring 2012 Collection

For Spring 2012, Lands End Canvas takes you on a favorite summer activity – the road trip. Discover the great influences along route 66 and beyond as Lands End Canvas takes you on a fashion journey from Paris to San Juan, Napa and Baja. Displayed in different vignettes, the All-American collection featured the brand’s usual layering as well as nautical stripes, plaid, gingham, khaki, easy knits, this summer’s staple – eyelets, and more.

The entire collection oozed easy, classic simplicity and comfort without being too boring. I especially loved the belted dresses – the bold prints, the sweet silhouettes, etc. I loved the unexpected surprise of polka dot underneath the navy drawstring dress. I’m always a fan of the Lands End Canvas accessories and quite a few caught my attention. I also fell madly in love with the crotcheted knit bag featured in the first photo collage above. Other cool accessories included colorful skinny braided belts, wide brimmed hats, fedoras, small cross-body bags, colorful ties for men (which I’ve always loved to use as belts).

Lands End Canvas featured two forms of entertainment, first was the live artwork on one section of the event space by art students from the School of Visual Arts, who painted non-stop throughout the entire event.

Second was a live performance by Boston-based band, The Wandas, who entertained the crowd beyond the end of the event.

Expect to see some of these looks online and in-stores starting this month.
