Pre-Fashion Week Profile: Rebecca Minkoff Shares Her FNO Plans, Favorite Fall Outfit, and More

Next up for our pre-Fashion Week profile is designer and adorable mother-to-be Rebecca Minkoff.

Next up for our pre-Fashion Week profile is designer and adorable mother-to-be Rebecca Minkoff. The designer — whose bags and clothing have been spotted on Jayma Mays, Lauren Conrad, and Whitney Port — took time out of her busy schedule to chat with us about her guilty pleasures, Fashion's Night Out plans, and even divulged a little info about a special surprise for her Spring '12 collection. Listen up to what she has to say now.

Guilty pleasure during Fashion Week: I'm oh so pregnant this season, so my goal is for the energy around me to remain very laid back and business as usual, as much as possible. I don't plan on indulging in anything and I fully intend on getting plenty of sleep. I'm kind of boring this time around!

Fashion's Night Out plans: I'll be at Saks Fifth Avenue hosting a Hair Braiding Bar with The Man Repeller. She's so much fun and my customers always bring enormous enthusiasm and excitement to FNO, so it's guaranteed to be a good time!

Surprises for Spring '12: I'm unveiling a few brand-new categories that I'm so proud of and excited for everyone to see. But for now, mum's the word, so I guess you'll have to wait and see.
