New York Fashion Week Day 9 and 10
Day Nine: February 19, 2009
Zac Posen, Isaac Mizrahi, and Vera Wang were some of the big names of Day Nine. My favorite of the day was the retro-chic collection of Catherine Malandrino. Her thirties style collection was full of fantastic dresses, jackets, and tops. The primary skirt sillhouette is the ever classic pencil. The colors and fabric textures mean there is something in the collection for day or night.
Day Ten: February 20, 2009
The final day of New York Fashion Week 2009 was short and sweet. Ralph Lauren showed as well as the most recent season of Project Runway. While the latest season of Project Runway has yet to even have a release date set, the three finalist showed their creations at Bryant Park. Cloaked in anonymity, we saw three different styles and tastes. The first was highly layered with jackets, sweaters, and belts. The second was feminine, with a lot of frills, sculpture, and a soft color pallette. The third had a very hard egde, with a lot of black and sleek, crisp lines. My favorite of the three was collection number two. Whoever the winner will be, it has definitely left me very curious and impatient for the newest season (whenever that might be!)
Fashion week may be over, but that doesn’t mean great style has to end. Who were your favorites?
