NYFW Fall 2011: Mara Hoffman The Warrior Mother

It’s not hard to guess how Mara Hoffman’s inspiration manifested for her Fall 2011 collection seeing that she is pregnant with twin baby boys.

From “bump friendly” caftans and bold stark prints, to fluent contours with an element of sexy, Hoffman’s Fall 2011 collection embodies the “warrior mother” symbolic of strength, yet complimented with comfort.

A mother of a warrior would not be complete without her warpaint, the look achieved on the models by Lottie Stannard for Makeup Forever.

We see many mother warrior days ahead with plenty of face paint and make believe battles in Mara Hoffman’s future with two bouncing baby boys on the way. It’s only befitting that we close with the words of former 80’s rockstar mom, Patty Smyth (wife of tennis bad-boy John McEnroe) and Scandal:

“Shootin’ at the walls of heartache, bang, bang, I am the warrior
Well I am the warrior, and heart to heart you’ll win..if you surviiiiiiiiive“
