I’m a little confused by all the designer/chain store collaborations, but for now I’m enjoying it. Here are two that I think are pretty stellar:

Christian Siriano for Payless (particularly adoring the T-Straps) in stores September 2012:

And Mary Katrantzou for Topshop, thinking the bubble skirt looked better on her other designs, this one isn’t doing it for me but the dress in the third image is brilleous (brilliant and gorgeous of course):

Available now at Topshop
