Today was the first day of the ready-to-wear shows for Paris Fashion Week. Being the first day, it may be too early to spot trends, but I am taking notice of the colors for spring thus far. A few collections have color palettes that are more reminiscent of fall. Rochas had colors like burnt orange, deep [...]
The Jil Sander line, +J, is almost here, it arrives at Uniqlo on Thursday, October 1st. When the two decided to team up for womens, mens and accessories it was simply genius. Jil Sander is best known for it’s minimalist aesthetic and Uniqlo is known for its affordable prices, the two together created magic. One of [...]
Karate was the inspiration for the spring 2010 collection at Bottega Veneta. The casual ease is evident in the pieces. I know that we throw the word ‘chic’ around quite casually during these fashion weeks, but this collection is the epitome of the word. A chic woman is effortless in her style; it appears as if she [...]
The Alberta Ferretti runway show was heavenly. The fabrics were sheer and the dresses were ultra feminine. It was a beautiful collection done in the prettiest neutrals. There were sufficient prints and patterns to keep the collection interesting. All in all it was very cohesive, and each piece related to the other perfectly. The Alberta Ferretti woman will [...]
The collection was classic Armani with a twist, beautiful vibrant colors with a fresh and youthful spin. He threw in hues of blues, greens and pinks. One could easily see Rihanna in many of the pieces in the collection, including this look. I definitely got the feeling of a more relaxed Armani, and it was wonderful. It’s [...]
Burberry revealed a collection of yummy trenches for spring 2010. They were chic, short and feminine. The lavendar trench with the ruching in the shoulders and arms was to die for. The proportions of the coats are visually stimulating; there’s so much to look at, without being fussy or overdone. The nude colored trench with ruching throughout [...]
Yesterday was all about the metallics at the Emmys, but I could not let this dress go by unacknowledged. To borrow the line from “Jerry Maguire”, ‘[it] had me at hello.” The dress made its red carpet appearance on actress Jennifer Carpenter of “Dexter”. What’s not to love about this gown? It’s sexy and feminine; I think of [...]
Kaley Cuoco in David Meister-2009 Emmys
The 61st Emmy Awards took place yesterday, but the real show happened on the red carpet. One of the trends for the evening was metallic dresses, and Kaley Cuoco rivaled the emmy in this David Meister gown. It was sparkly and youthful, and the fitted silhouette and bare-back creation only accentuated [...]
I really hate break-ups, but I do believe that we’ve reached the end of the road. The stylish and fashionable have left the building, um, the tents at Bryant Park. The tents been removed, and we will never again assemble there for New York Fashion Week. The next time this set gets together, it will be at Lincoln Center, [...]
Fashion’s Night Out makes our Rollcall list this week because it included the average consumer in on a mostly industry event. The shows were great; we were treated to a bevy of beautiful collections, but Fashion’s Night Out was undoubtly the most exciting part of New York Fashion Week Spring 2010. It was so successful that CFDA [...]
