By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent The inspiration behind Jill Stuart‘s fall 2012 collection was something dark and magical. Using dark colors and rich textures, JS created looks that were on point with the vampy trend we’ve seen from other designers for fall. The usually bright and colorful designer chose to darken up her fall […]
By Tiffany Piñero, Fashion Week Correspondent Last time we saw Rebecca Minkoff at Fashion Week, she was days away from meeting her new baby boy. Well, the baby weight was nowhere in sight (!), but the style stuck around, and in terms of ready-to-wear it might have even multiplied. Aside from the runway show, there […]
By Tiffany Piñero, Fashion Week Correspondent Catching up with Cynthia Rowley before her fall runway show was such a good time. I mean, doesn’t every designer have an opening in their schedule to shoot the breeze before the unveiling of a major collection?! Clearly that question is dripping in sarcasm, but amazingly enough, the fabulous […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent Known for the infamous “bandage” dress, Max and Lubov Azria designed the fall Herve Leger collection with this dress as the foundation for the line. It’s a dark and edgy collection for next fall, which we’ve seen from some other shows over the past week as well. From leather harnesses […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent Drama, Drama, Drama! That’s what strutted down the runway at Christian Siriano. And it was the best drama a fashion girl could ask for!

The influence for this collection were the original rock-and-roll girls of the early 60’s. Narrow pants, wildly-printed jumpsuits and flared mini skirts definitely were reminiscent of that era. Neon yellow was paired […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent Hello, Gorgeous! Those were the exact words that came out of my mouth when I stepped foot into Rafael Cennamo‘s fall presentation. Sort of a dark glamour theme to this collection, RC captured the essence of a woman who wants classy, elegant pieces but with a little bit of […]
By Sarah Kleinhenz, Fashion Week Correspondent Lacoste was quite possibly my most-anticipated show this season. I was so blown away and excited after seeing what Felipe Oliveira Baptista did for spring that I couldn’t wait to see the fall collection. There were three enclosed “snow globes” in the center of the runway and once the […]
By Thao Nguyen, Fashion Week Correspondent Flashing lights…LIGHTS! And they sure were flashing! I couldn’t have kicked off this year’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York any better than by being at the QVC Spring 2012 show! Fun, flirty and super-CHIC basically sums up everything running through my mind as visions of pinks, purples, blues and […]
By Tiffany Piñero, Fashion Week Correspondent What better way to start off the New York Fashion Week hoopla than with the BCBG show!
