Mara Hoffman Mercedes Benz Spring 2009 Fashion Week The Tents at Bryant Park September 10, 2008 Written by Wendy R. Williams Photographed by Cindy Ord

Fashion designer Mara Hoffman presented a line of fun leisure wear for Spring/Summer of 2009 that was designed from fabrics and prints from all over the world. The colors were bright and the designs were fun, just the thing for a fashionable traveler to pop into a roll-on and head to the Carribean.

Hoffman has a unique eye for design, a viewpoint that was recognized by Patricia Field who utilized Hoffman's designs when she was the costume consultant for Sex and the City.
