London Fashion Visits NY- The Best of London S/S 2012 at The London Show Rooms

Naveed and I popped by The London Show Rooms in New York last week to take a close-up and intimate look at some of London's brightest designers. As always, we were mesmerized with the up close privilege of ogling at some incredible construction, innovative design, and left with a wish list days long from the generous talent of these young designers from "across the pond."  I guessed right on wanting to see  Cate Blanchette wear Felicity Brown, as, ironically, she's the line's muse. From my lips to Cate's next red carpet would be divine! --S.H. Shortly after the rigid snooze-fest that we've come to think of New York Fashion Week as comes to a wrap comes The London Show Rooms, an annual

Christopher Kane spring 2012

I’ll Have What She’s Having: Erin O’Connor in Harem Pants

Harem pants or voluminous pegged leg pants are tricky to pull off. More times than not you end up looking like you swiped the pants right off the back of Bozo the Clown... yikes! But when worn just the right way, as Erin O'Connor demonstrated on her way into the Vivienne Westwood Red Label Show during London Fashion Week, the end result is sublime. Here's why... Counterbalance extreme volume on one part of your body with something shaped on your other half. A boxy jacket in a contrasting color would add bulk, like it did in Sienna Miller's case. However, Erin selected a a jacket with a fitted waist, strong shoulders, and an open V-neck in a in the same
