2009 New York Fashion Week
Fab Flash: Doo-Ri Shows Off Her Bejeweled Legwear
Doo-Ri Chung has learned the right pair of tights can instantly transform an outfit. After receiving high accolades for the leggings shown in her Fall collection, seen left, Doo-Ri has decided to launch a hosiery line.
“I would love to use studs or bring something in that could be smooth on the surface,” said Chung.
On Our Radar: Anna Sheffield Creates Jewels With Bensoni
The jewelry mastermind behind Bing Bang, Anna Sheffield, has teamed up with hip NY clothing brand Bensoni to create a line of rocker girl baubles to complement its Fall collection. The exclusive line, which debuted at New York Fashion Week, includes a selection of earrings, necklaces, and cuffs made in inky, metallic finishes. My favorite piece has to be this rad cuff.
Freaky or Fabulous: Isaac Mizrahi's Zany Hats
I'm all for avant-garde dressing, but the crazy toppers at Isaac Mizrahi's Fall show take hats to a whole new level. I love handbags but putting one on your head is nonfunctional and it just looks weird! Seriously, how strange would it be to see someone pulling their keys out the top of their head .
Fab Blab: Hollywood Girls Talk Recession Shopping
There's no denying the current economic crisis. That said, I've been trying my best to save money and cut back on everything — even shopping. Times like these make me envy the lifestyles of the rich and famous, but even they aren't immune to this problem.
Fab Finger Discount: French Connection Cosmic Wonder Tube Top
Jenni Kayne's Fall '09 collection was brilliant, but I didn't expect anything less from the trendsetting designer. Among the standout looks was this all-black trouser and tube top set, finished with chunky sandals, a gold ball necklace, and black-rimmed glasses. Simple yet unmistakably cool, that's Kayne's forte.
New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Bloodsuckers
I'm forever intrigued by bloodsuckers, but the sexiest monster has once again been popularized with the successes of Twilight and True Blood. I'm actually surprised I didn't see more gothic romance on the Fall runways; then again, we still have London, Milan, and Paris to go. A handful of New York designers delivered sultry, moody looks complete with sharp black outwear, ruffled blouses, lace aplenty, blood-colored tights and tulle, and neck-baring sexiness.
Catching Up With Mary-Kate
Here's how Mary-Kate's week went last week: Tuesday, CelebStyle is giving away pieces from the Elizabeth and James jewelry line; Wednesday, chatted with Fab while drinking a non-vanilla iced latte; Wednesday night, partied with fashion folks at Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld exhibition; Thursday, attended Proenza Schouler's Fall show while wearing a pair of shoes from Elizabeth and James's shoe collection; Saturday, attended the Independent Spirit awards in Proenza shoes. Whew. See how it's all intertwined?
Freaky or Fabulous: Alexander Wang's Killer Jewelry
As promised, Alexander Wang's first jewelry collection with Brooklyn-based jewelry designer Paris Kain of Abraxas Rex debuted on Wang's runway Feb. 14. If you paid close attention, you would have spotted the weapon-like cuff, seen on Tasha Tilberg's wrist, and the sharp, alien-like earrings.
New York Fashion Week Trend Alert: Flight of the Aviator
After seasons of menswear items like leather jackets, blazers, tapered trousers, and suiting, I'm ready for a new incarnation. Shearling jackets, plaid, hoods, and slick contours glided down New York's Fall runways and I'm already on board. Charlotte Ronson often flirts with tough outerwear and vintage prints; this cute look can be easily emulated if you already have a plaid dress and sporty vest.
Which New York Fashion Week Model Is Most Fab?
Fashion Week isn't merely the designers' time to shine. It's also time for models to claim their stake on the catwalk. Along with some of the latest runway darlings like Anja Rubik, Arlenis Sosa, Karlie Kloss, and Natasha Poly, a few veterans like Tasha Tilberg and Trish Goff came back and proved they're still pros at the game.
