Anna Sui Fall 2011 Runway Review

Anna Sui has a great ability to always channel a 60's hippie vibe along with a 60's rock vibe and a bit of country thrown in for the good girls.

Betsey Johnson Fall 2011 Runway Review
New York Fashion Week Highlight: Fashion is nonsense and should be fun and exercised with creativity and joy. Betsey gets that right year after year. If you can see a fashion show, this is hands down the one to get into. Betsey Johnson is a performance piece, not just fashion. And not just the Fall 2011 collection, but every single one of 'em. The music is revved, the models are dancing down the runway, the crowd is excited and let's not forget Betsey's infamous cartwheel finale! Now onto the clothing portion. But wait, first the super radical hair and shoes. The platinum ombre sprayed on the black hair with precise black lace stencil - radical. The open toe, super stiletto

Fashion Week Gossip- Oscar de Renta’s Global Revolution draws on the Silk Road, Tinsley Mortimer at Robert Verdi’s Luxe Laboratory and…
... The Genius Collection from Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig's Marchesa was truly overflowing with drama as a sure bet for the Red Carpet! Brad Boles is still terrorizing the town in fabulousness with his Blackberry... I'm sure that I love Oscar de la Renta as much as Sarah Jessica Parker does! He has drawn inspiration throughout the years from Morocco, India, and Paris in the 1920's. The fall 2011 Oscar de la Renta collection is every bit as glamorous as his previous iconic collections. Between the embellished jackets of gold bullion and sequined gowns, my source the "Debutante It Girl," was front row at the show and kept me (and you) in the loop via her cryptic texts. Oscar

Fashion Week Roundup- Best of New York, Spring 2011
Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 Runway Review: Reflections of Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, Jason Wu, Donna Karan spring summer 2011 Naveed Hussain has been taking a breathe and pondering New York Fashion Week- not as piece by piece but by show, to see what stood out above the NYFW fray and complexities of the week. -- S.H. We've been doing a lot of whining at the pace and scale of fashion in this day and age of globalism and an unsteady economy. Fashion today has become a world-wide beast, it's everywhere, and isn't that a good thing? Shouldn't this mean we are all sitting at home with a closet full of the best we can buy?

David Elfin Spring 2011 Fashion Show, New York and Madrid is Crisp, Clean and Modern
Runway Review: The designer shows in 2 cities and sticks to HIS architectural design Davidelphin spring 2011- New York Davidelfin cuts a mean pattern... And sticks to his guns too! The Spanish designer who shows both at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York and then at Cibeles Madrid Fashion Week is true to his architectural and somewhat austere design aesthetic. Davidelfin's fine modern classic tailoring is best appreciated up close. Particularly in New York, where floaty fabrics and sandy colors reigned supreme, the Davidelfin spring collection was a jolt in the arm for the woman who just wanted to stick to her 90's minimalist guns or whatever you want to call someone who prefers her clothing lean, clean, and mean. >>
Anna Sui – Spring 2011 Fashion Show. Fun, Feminine and Bohemian Joy
Runway Review: The Anna Sui woman is a frisky pioneer chick by way of the late 1960's, all wrapped up in a very modern package! It's home on a VERY fashionable range for Anna Sui... Twenty years of Anna Sui and it will always be dreamy in my book! Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York went to the countryside for this show of pretty pioneer girls circa 1969 making daisy chains and playing the tambourine! Flirty dresses in mixed prints with fluttering hems were the highlight and perfect for spring paired with soft accessories. >> SHOP: Anna Sui at ShopBop Anna Sui - Spring 2011 Fashion Show Besides the perfectly pretty clothes, there was the accessorizing of feather necklaces, flower head
