“I went to Morocco… with Allen Ginsberg in my satchel and Bob Dylan in my ears. Met Alessandro and embarked on a romantic adventure… Safari in Africa and sunsets in Greece.” – Whitley Kros
Whitley Kros’ romantic adventure in Morocco, Greece and Africa was the inspiration behind the Spring 2009 Collection. The materials used for the collection—solid silk, linen/cotton knits, printed silks, washed chambray, printed chiffon, printed silks, and printed cotton.

The collection's color palate is sky blue, mustard, sherbet, silver, and navy solids mix in with romantic, whimsical prints.
The show was beautiful and vivacious filled with lots of energy but in a casual, natural way. The collection looked extremely unique and personified Whitley Kros’ traveling adventures in the perfect way.
