BCBG Max Azria Fashion Show Photos & Runway Review Spring 2013
BCBGMaxAzria Spring 2013 Runway Review: BCBG is famously known for their young, contemporary, and often color blocked party dresses, but this season strays a bit from this mold and I am not certain it was their best move.
Colors are more neutral and washed out and black casts a big shadow over this Spring 2013 line. No, not your usual brights and bold blocks of color covering the airy pleated chiffons …

Narciso Rodriguez Fall 2012 Runway Review
Runway Review: Body conscious, well-tailored and asymmetric dresses with expert seaming and unusual folding and pleating are what really draw my attention to this collection…
The fall 2012 Narciso Rodriguez collection was a seamless continuation of what we saw in pre-fall with structured outerwear, oversized and voluminous silhouettes, asymmetrical draping and folding, seaming, and color blocking.

The fall 2012 Custo Barcelona collection takes the brand’s iconic textures, psychedelic colors and prints, and one of a kind designs to a new roughed up and tough level. At the same time it comes off as one of the most wearable, wild collections that I can recall. Lots of …

Tracy Reese Fall 2012 Runway Review & Fashion Show Photos
Runway Review: Tracy Reese gives us a colorful fall 2012 collection that balances strength with femininity with her use of punchy colors, large tropical prints, sturdy fabrics paired with draped silk, and silhouettes that accentuate the female shape.
It’s refreshing to see a fall collection that isn’t dark and dreary, instead the saturated oranges, purples, aquas and yellows put a sunny spin on the cold months of the season.
This line …

Runway Review: If you want a truly sexy LBD, you have come to the right designer.
Sexy. Bondage. Need I say more about the Fall 2012 collection from Herve Leger?! There is not a chance, with all the leather straps, anatomical seaming, and skin-tight dense knits, that a woman can wear one of these slammin’ dresses and NOT exude supreme sexiness. No way. This is the most bodycon one can …

Charlotte Ronson Fall 2012 Runway Review and Photos
Runway Review: Asymmetrical hems, oversize honeycomb stitches and graphic fair isles are must-haves, along with gotta-get sweaters.
The Charlotte Ronson Fall 2012 show had me already yearning for chilly autumn’s return when it’s yet to be spring!
A soft, warm palette painted itself on cozy intarsia and cable sweaters, tightly fit leather, light weight georgette, and thick jacquards. The looks were completed and well-balanced with soft purple eye shadow and pouty …

Nicholas K Fall 2012 Runway Review & Photos
Runway Review: Heritage prairie inspiration with a dose of edge– and some of the best outerwear around.
Fall 2013 from Nicholas K. takes you to the wild west prairie days, roughed up with an ample amount of dark edginess to boot, and a dose of old-school 90′s heroin chic played up with goth-ish hair dye.
Sometimes a bit frightening! But not too terrifying, because the fabrications were flowy, easily draped on …
