>> Now that New York Fashion Week has wound to a close, one last look at the backstage hubbub — we've seen Lily Donaldson give her best glare, Liu Wen her best stare, and plenty of kissy faces. In this installment, there's Phillip Lim making a few last minute alterations, Hanne Gaby Odiele playing coy at Anna Sui, plus behind-the-scenes snaps from Proenza Schouler, Ralph Lauren, Jeremy Scott, and L'Wren Scott.

There was a broad range of style at last night's Us Weekly Hot Hollywood party in LA. You had color, bustiers, legs, ruffles, pants, and beading. But top salute goes to Kelly Osbourne and Anna Kendrick. Kelly rocked the quintessential (read) Jeremy Scott LBD, and her beau was quite dashing in a tux, while Anna wore an awesome Emilio Pucci aquatic frock. Proceed for more of the most hotties . . .
My grandmother used to tell me that horizontal lines make your hips look wider, but what's the rule about big yellow squares? I came across the Jeremy Scott Phone Skirt ($198) and immediately wanted to dial 9-1-1. High voltage!
Although it does strike a cord with me — I'm a sucker for anything having to do with tech or gadgets, obviously — I can't help wonder how this skirt would look on a regular-sized gal. Although, in Jeremy Scott's defense, you can also get this print as a shirt as well. What do you think?

>> Second Season of Loic Prigent's The Day Before Confirmed for September —Documentarian Loic Prigent captured Sonia Rykiel, Proenza Schouler, Fendi, and Jean Paul Gaultier in the 36 hours leading up to their respective shows for the premiere season of the Sundance Channel's series The Day Before. As reported, he's back for a second round, having followed Alexander Wang, Diane von Furstenberg, Jeremy Scott, Narciso Rodriguez, Peter Copping at Nina Ricci, and Donatella Versace at Versace during the Fall 2010 season. The new season premieres Wednesday, Sept. 8 at 10 PM. Prigent noted, “We explored the energy of New York with young labels like Alexander Wang, grandes dames like Diane von Furstenberg, energy and humor with Jeremy Scott, and couturelike precision with Narciso Rodriguez. In Paris, you see the sweetness and romanticism of Nina Ricci, and the extreme everything of Donatella Versace in Milan. All those houses are very different, which has made it such a crazy experience.” [Full Frontal Fashion]
