The spring cocktail dresses were chic silhouettes on their own, the light palette was refreshing, but I saw a few key details that didn't sit with the collection.

Runway Review: Project Runway protege Daniel Vosovic rocks it out at his Spring 2011 fashion show Our photojournalist and design doll, Alix Kivlin is back from her year long trek around the world and is hitting the catwalks of New York. Here, she catches up with her old friend Daniel Vosovic backstage at his Spring / Summer fashion show. -- S.H. Confession: Daniel Vosovic is an old, dear friend of mine. But of of more relevance, a finalist and most loved contestant in season 2 of "Project Runway." Daniel has stomped his way on to the fashion scene successfully and on opening eve of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Daniel Vosovic presented his 3rd collection. And in my opinion his best.

From fire eaters to blow outs... a photo journey Fashion took to the streets Friday night in Fashion Night out, a celebration to kick-off Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. And joined with it was everyone from Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Jersey crowding the streets of Soho and bouncing in and out of a multitude of open parties in stores and galleries. DJ's spun, projectors flashed edgy indie flickerings, champagne and vodka drinks were abound as well as hot celebrity showcases at some spots. Throw in a sexy fire dancer in sequins and a praying mantis on stilts, and that was Friday's Fashion Night Out. -- Alix Kivlin Take a look... prince & mercer frilly girls Fire! It's Alix!
