Yigal Azrouël Spring 2010.

Tao Okamoto

Looking sun-kissed and surf-ready, Laura Blokhina—walking the runway in a loose vest, slashed top, and pajama-easy shorts—was the very epitome of the Yigal Azrouël look…which, surprisingly, wasn't otherwise very much on view this season.

Azrouël (currently training for a marathon and, apparently, thinking streamlined) was aiming for something more "structured and much less layered than it has been in the past."

Bruna Tenorio

He attacked his garments like Edward Scissorhands. With a "scalpel-like" cut, as he put it, he sliced out stark appliqués, binding them over sheer fabrics (for an effect that was occasionally too much like a Léger bandage) and floating them over T-shirts that looked like a punk rocker's DIY project—only in much nicer fabric than you'd find in any Hanes six-pack. (Under the tees were sexy, slivered bandeaus that didn't look like you could make them at home.)

Azrouël's use of negative space was most effective, however, on the dresses, like a white jersey gown with back slashes that looked like spinnakers and a short number with "porthole" shoulder peeps to wear for a night on the town.

Lisanne De Jong

Among all these jagged geometries, the signature Yigal Azrouël pieces (especially the jackets: a moto topper with studs and zippers, a loose leather-and-cotton parka, a linen blazer) were as welcome a sight as an old friend.

Jacquelyn Jablonski

If Azrouël's latest creative impetus didn't move the collection forward a full pace, it at least functioned to make the signature pieces sing.
