Kate Winslet joined the many famous faces at NY Fashion Week as she stepped out in the Big Apple last night. She attended the opening of CFDA's new exhibition at FIT called "Impact: 50 Years of the CFDA." Kate, who is the current face of St. John, wore a fitted black dress from the line and was accompanied by St. John designer George Sharp and CFDA CEO Steven Kolb for the occasion. Also on hand to see the work on display were Prabal Gurung, Vera Wang, Lorraine Schwartz, and Anna Wintour.

Vera Wang Pre-Fall 2012

Hannah Weil — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 12:22:27 PST

Citing Jane Birkin and 1960s Yves Saint Laurent as muses, Vera Wang offers up a Pre-Fall collection that's teeming with both the whimsical and the vintage - all while being totally grounded in a modern woman's aesthetic. Rife with textures and layers and dotted with full-bodied prints, Wang marries older references, like 16-button gloves, with newer purposes, like wearing those gloves as sleeves. Rich fabrications feel all the more wearable layered up from head to toe - for every wisp of a dress, she counters with ribbed knee socks, vests, and overcoats, giving us the downtown girl with a flair for Parisian polish.

Trends: Layering, gloves as sleeves, sportswear, abstract prints.
Colors: Gray, black, rich multihued prints, orange, purple.
Key Look: The soft, purple print high-low dress and cropped gray jacket.
Accessories: Gloves, knee socks, loafer pumps.
Who Would Wear It: The modern femme.

Vera Wang Spring 2012

FabSugar — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 11:44:40 PDT

With an eclectic front-row crowd that included Kim Kardashian, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Serena Williams, and a dramatic last-minute arrival by Beyoncé, the Vera Wang Spring 2012 show already had a buzz going by the time the first ethereal white look strode down the runway. It was a collection inspired by Alice in Wonderland - Tim Burton's version, no doubt - that mixed Vera's skill for soft feminine touches with an edge; chiffon dresses had drawstrings, floral prints seemed to morph into something totally trippy and neon-hued, and the skirts were cut away to reveal the models' long legs clad in gladiator heels. Some of the more fanciful looks included a yellow corset with peplum boy shorts and techno cotton eyelet cropped vests layered over corsets. We remain most entranced, however, by the first series of white looks, as the play between transparency and tailoring, between softness and edge, seemed most natural and truly channeled that Alice in Wonderland magic. This can be no coincidence considering Wang's reign as one of the world's top bridal designers.

Trends: Sporty, sheer dresses, boy shorts, hooded vests.

Colors: White, psychedelic prints, gray, indigo, purple.

Key Look: The first series of white dresses that had Vogue Editor Grace Coddington pointing and whispering rather excitedly from the front row.

Accessories: Gladiator platform heels from Vera Wang Lavender line.

Who Would Wear It: We could see Beyoncé using one of the corset/vest combos for a music video; red-carpet risk takers like Tilda Swinton would look amazing in the white chiffon dresses.
