From a Sketch to the Runway

Women’s Wear Daily asked a few designers to share their original sketches from the Spring 2012 Collections. It’s truly fascinating to look at the sketch, created months before the actual garment, and then see it come to life on the runway. We’re sure that many of you can relate to that feeling!
