By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent Although Jenny Packham was bright and early Monday morning, I was wide awake by the time the models strutted down the runway. It was nothing short of fabulous. I’ve been a HUGE admirer of her designs for years, and was literally jumping out of my wedges when I found […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent This was the last collection I saw Sunday, and boy did I save the best for last! The spring collection for Gwen Stefani’s uber-popular clothing line, L.A.M.B., is no less than swoon-worthy (It was B-A-N-A-N-A-S!). The themes that inspired this collection were Rat Pack, high voltage and maharaja. You could see […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent “The Spring 2012 collection achieves a feminine yet relaxed mood through the juxtaposition of romance and sport, comfort and flattery.” This was the statement made by Tracy Reese about her inspiration for her newest collection. She wanted to focus more on modern fluidity and bring romance to the forefront […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent Lela Rose had an interesting inspiration for her spring collection; a neon graveyard depicting pieces of both Las Vegas and Coney Island. She used the unrestored and broken signs from both landscapes to draw design ideas from. Lela is known for her ease and elegance when designing clothes, so […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent There are only two words I have to describe the Christian Siriano spring collection; Effortlessly chic. Y’all, he knocked it out of the ballpark this season. Yes, you’ill see some similar styles and designs from seasons past, but the colors, fabrics and textures he uses work – and that’s […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent When watching the Vivienne Tam spring collection flow down the runway, I couldn’t help but feel like I was in the middle of a Zen garden. And who doesn’t need some calm and quiet in their life? (after fashion week, I could use a lot of zen right about […]
Well, I’m a little late on this, so consider this a belated Whiny Wednesdays post and please forgive me. So many happenings during Fashion Week! When I heard Ralph Lauren and Saks produced a Ralph Lauren Girl’s Fashion Show this year (for the first time!), I nearly stumbled in my peep-toes. When I saw […]
I’m really bummed I couldn’t make it downtown to The Standard last week while in New York (sometimes, I need a clone, y’all!), so even though I didn’t attend, I received these images from the M.Patmos collection and couldn’t help but share them. I heart this collection so much! The work of designer Marcia […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent I was really excited to see the Jill Stuart show Saturday. She’s one designer I can count on to have great looks every season. Her clean lines and effortless designs always win me over. And her spring line was no different. There were fun prints (palm trees, anyone?), scalloped […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent I started the morning (super earrrrrly) with the Ruffian show. I hadn’t heard much of this designer before Fashion Week, and let me tell you, the label is now on my radar! Robert Verdi, Rose McGowen and Carrie Preston (Arlene from True Blood) were among the crowd waiting eagerly […]
