Julian Louie Fall 2010 New York Fashion Week at Milk Studios

Runway Review: This outing highlighted Louie's knack for creating clothes that are distinctive yet grounded in reality Amidst a fun & energetic Friday at Milk Studios with stellar presentations everywhere you turned, Julian Louie's short film screening of Ukrainian model Jules Mordovets was set in a serene if not hyper-bourgeois setting, complete with a mannequin resting on a gilt settee in full-on Charles James inspired regalia. Were we in for heavy and baroque from a designer that's been working laid-back sophistication with an uncompromising ease and cool hand? Thankfully, this wasn't the case as this outing highlighted Louie's knack for creating clothes that are distinctive yet grounded in reality.

WHERE IT NOW | #NYFW Runway Review: There is a three dimensional beauty to each architecturally crafted piece of fashion sculpture yet it remains easy to wear & always elegant It's almost hard to believe that the Donna Karan label is turning 25.

Wayne by Wayne Lee Fall 2010 Fashion Show

Runway Review: This collection is destined to have something every girl won't want to take off all season While Wayne Lee has made quite a name for her self in just a few short season's with her urban minded label Wayne amongst the "IT" girls out there with a never ending need for body-con party looks, her Fall 2010 collection was a smart move in the "something for everyone" direction >> See our complete fashion show section for more runway reviews and photo galleries Here she used sweatshirt fabrications with contrasting leather and fur panels for a look that was linear yet less unforgiving while slightly louche. And while city dressing comes with a familiar if not redundant vibe, Lee's

Mara Hoffman NY Fashion Week, Fall – Winter 2010

Runway Review: Mara Hoffman's girl for fall took a mystical, enchanted turn through a darker sort of place and was all the better for it. Mara Hoffman opted out of the tents and instead presented fall 2010 at the Openhouse Gallery in Nolita in combination with an original film and musical performance. The intimacy of the space was the perfect foil to the clothes that were done in decidedly sexy acid-hued dip-dyes, hieroglyph prints, and pops of off-primary pieces that were artfully slashed and punked up with chunky exposed zippers.
