Diane von Furstenberg called her show "Rock Goddess" (Celebs @ Diane Von Furstenberg: Spring 2009 show ). But "Flower Child" might've been a more apt title for this breezy Spring collection, which, in contrast to Fall, consisted mostly of dresses.

The models wore silk flowers and feathers strung from leather cords in their loose hair, and there were all manner of sixties standbys, from plissé wrap gowns and short tunics to a Saint Laurent safari dress and ribbed knits worn with denim flares.

Everything was boldly colored, splashed with lush prints (often more than one in a single outfit), or trimmed in crystals and beads. Should von Furstenberg's hippie chick long for a touch of glam—a subject with which the designer is on intimate terms—there was a gold jacket and tuxedo shorts (worn, thank goodness, separately).
