I am actually okay with the upcoming Fall/Winter 2012-2013 collection. This is pleasantly surprising as the past few seasons haven’t been that great. The fall collection is full of neutrals, with oranges continuing to be dominant. Colour-blocking is strong as well, but it’s toned down a bit for the cooler season. Two pieces of criticism […]

Once again, many designers will be streaming their shows online so that those of us who can’t be in New York will be able to watch. Online shows, which include BCBGMaxAzria, Rebecca Minkoff, Carolina Herrera and Badgely Mischka will be streamed on the […]
Bold colours are back and Milly‘s Spring/Summer 2012 collection is not without them. With gorgeous dresses, trenches and separates, the pieces evoke every bit of elegant-yet-young-looking vibe that Milly is known for dominated in blue and orange tones with hints of lime green and specks of gold and of course, the requisite summer white. These […]
Like Christian Louboutin’s red soles, Hervé Léger‘s signature bandage dresses are hard to miss. They’re very similar season after season, and one dress can last years without looking like it’s “out” (unless you’re season-obsessed). The upcoming collection is no exception. There seems to be a warrior theme to the collection – many shiny metallics (a […]
Carolina Herrera has always been the epitome of elegance at New York Fashion Week and her Spring/Summer 2012 collection is no exception. The line up consists of gorgeous cocktail tones, mostly of fruity reds, greens and yellows as well as some standard neutrals in blueish stone greys and some browns, all shown with models walking […]
Bright pink ruled Luca Luca‘s runway on Friday. From dresses to belts and even the lipstick, the shade was everywhere, giving the collection a good punch in colour, just in time for warm weather. There were also hints of gems and floral patterns as well, seen on dresses, tops as well as pants (though I’m […]
Ever notice that BCBG’s runway collection looks very different from the “regular” pieces (suits, jersey dresses and evening gowns) sold at its own boutiques and department stores? The Spring-Summer collection is probably no different, and was, once again, more unique. Most of the dresses were at least tea length, asymetrical, with strappy, sleeveless or bare […]
Though the unofficial start of fall has just begun (and not even started calendar-wise), the thought of spring and summer has already gone through the minds of the fashion world. The opening show of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York was Nicholas K Studio. For Spring/Summer 2012, the women’s (and men’s) collection is full of […]
