He's been on my radar for a while now, but since I finally got to see his work in person, it's confirmed: 27-year-old Toronto-based designer Jeremy Laing is definitely one to watch. These pictures, from his Spring collection, don't do them justice. Especially because a lot of the finer details are in the backs of his designs, which you can't see in my runway pictures.

The former designers of Trovata debuted their first collection for Shipley & Palmos at New York Fashion Week, and I for one was impressed.
Highly wearable and modern, these well-tailored pieces feel fresh. At a time when so many designers don't know when to simplify their creations — I'm looking at you Project Runway contenders!

Olsen pal Jenni Kayne brings a piece of LA to the New York scene — and I, for one, am glad she does. Her Fall collection is a nice balance of grunge-inspired plaids, fine tuned menswear pieces, and maxi-length feminine skirts and dresses.
Prints and bright hues are sparse, but when they do show up, the leopard, fuchsia, patchwork, and yellow all work to great effect.

Lyn Devon is a new-found Fab friend who let us in on her inspiration and fabric-tweaking techniques at New York Fashion Week. She started her design house in 2005 where her artful designs have won accolades — including the 2007 Fashion Group International "Rising Star Award" in Women's Ready to Wear. Oh, and she previously worked at Zac Posen and Ralph Lauren.

Keeping with Fall's traditionally dim color palette, Donna delved deep into dark territories. The designer's love of long, flowy dresses, however, remained. Chanel Iman, Lily Donaldson, and Catherine McNeil sashayed down the runway with much gusto in their ruched gowns in deep red, copper, black, and olive.

It's safe to say that Brian Reyes' recurring fashion week nightmares didn't come to fruition — in fact, his show proceeded quite smoothly. Reyes, who started out under Oscar de la Renta's wing, is honing his name as designer to the sleek and chic.
Taffeta trenches, skirts, and dresses were patterned after Reyes' inspiration: the curving lines of topographical maps.

Leave it to Marc Jacobs to go pastel for Fall. You will not see your expected chocolate brown, plum or teal on this runway. You will see icey neutrals, a couple metallics and pastels.
