“It’s like color therapy — colors that generate a strong emotion with a lot of innocence and purity,” said Yin about the Leonard Spring 2016 collection. “It’s a shriek of delight to get out of winter and monotony.”

Yin’s deft hand with pleating was still apparent in this collection, in particular on a red eelskin bustier dress. The collection featured a more casual textural interplay than what the house has become known for.  The silhoutte and shape more sporty keeping in line with the perspective of fashion today.
