Nanette Lepore Spring 2013 Runway Review: Spring 2013 has Nanette Lepore written allover it with splashes of color, classical-gone-psychedelic prints, and killer swimwear capsule.

DL1961 Denim Spring 2013 Runway Review: The DL1961 Denim To Make Your Next Cult We all have our denim brands we are devoted to and follow like it's their last world tour, which I commend and adhere to myself (I am devoted to AG, Rag & Bone, and Lucky Brand - period), but I dare I say, there is a new (fairly new) denim cult to follow, and it's DL1961.  It's as simple as this: it's all in the fit.  For those curve-a-licious girls in particular, this is THE brand for you.  On that note, I would say for those without any hips and an ass, this may not be your spiritual denim calling. >> MORE: FASHION SHOWS AND RUNWAY REVIEWS  DL1961 more or

Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 Runway Review: Reflections of Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, Jason Wu, Donna Karan spring summer 2011 Naveed Hussain has been taking a breathe and pondering New York Fashion Week- not as piece by piece but by show, to see what stood out above the NYFW fray and complexities of the week. -- S.H. We've been doing a lot of whining at the pace and scale of fashion in this day and age of globalism and an unsteady economy. Fashion today has become a world-wide beast, it's everywhere, and isn't that a good thing? Shouldn't this mean we are all sitting at home with a closet full of the best we can buy? Okay well, that is possible, but

Isaac Mizrahi- Spring 11 Fashion Show, Enough about Trends, Lets be Pretty

Runway Review: When looking pretty speaks volume Every once in a while we need to cleanse our palette of trends and unneccessary froufrou and get back down to what a woman really wants to be when she gets dressed. For most of us over the age of 20ish, it's simply to look pretty in a way without unneccessary artifice or pretention. Pretty doesn't mean boring or dated. It means that you are in control of your look and want ot look stunning for yourself in a timeless and ageless way in clothing that is designed with YOU the woman in mind. >> SEE ISAAC MIZRAHI FASHION SHOW PHOTOS- COMPLETE SPRING COLLECTION The Isaac Mizrahi spring 2011 collection called "IM Xerox"

Edition by Georges Chakra NY Fashion Week- Spring 2011

Runway Review: What to wear when life is your red carpet I don't know about you, but I have certainly gotten tired of looking at overdone "Princess" fantasy dresses worn by celebrities on the red carpet. They are ostentatious dresses that often wear the wearer rather than spotlight her total beauty. I'm all for a bit of eccentricity and quirkiness, but when everyone wears the same quirky big number, it all looks the the same. For me, those over-the-top dresses look like a young girl's small town dream of what a "fancy" dress should be rather than an elegant ideal of what a real grown-up woman should wear when she has the opportunity to glam it up. >> Fashion Shows

London Fashion Week: Osman Spring / Summer 2010

The ‘White Collection' is all about crisp, cleans lines offering wearable, pure, fresh,futuristic style Runway Review: In a single colour palette of white, accented with gold, Osman Yousefzada's Spring/Summer 10 ‘White Collection' offered simple and structured sharp silhouettes. The absence of colour draws attention to the variety of fabric textures used including cheesecloths, blended silks and soft suedes in off-white shades. Touches of gold used in patches and dip-dyed edges add a glossy, luxe-feel to the spring collection. Kimono silhouettes mirror ethnical shapes of Japan while other, more abstract, shapes provide a futuristic, modern feel.
