It may only be late October, but the fashion industry is already thinking spring. Now that Fashion Week is over, many designers are offering clients the chance to try on pieces they recently showed on the runway or at an installation. On October 26, Yorkville’s Homegrown Boutique, which features styles by up-and-coming designers, held such […]
For Spring/Summer 2012, Wesley Badanjak’s LOVAS has a more fun, light-weight collection compared to “Sisters” for Fall/Winter 2011. Influenced by his travels in the tropics, the collection was called “Birds of Paradise.” And birds the models were.

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 […]
