Fall 2011 New York Fashion Week: Mara Hoffman

Ever dream of being a mystical witch princess? If so, Mara Hoffman's Fall collection is for you. That said, it's one beautiful mystical witch princess. Floor-length dresses had hoods, but lest you think that's a warmth factor, they were done in silk chiffon or jersey, and one was backless. Models' fingers were painted black and were bedecked in All For the Mountain jewelry. Knits were a standout: thick, printed, and either oversize or super cropped. Overall, it was a romantic vision, one that invited this comment from an observer: "far out, dude." Check out our exclusive interview with the designer here on FabSugarTV.
