Roland Mouret Takes You Front Row

FabSugar — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 15:00:22 -0700

It's official: live streaming runway shows are the hottest thing to do this season. Hot off the heels of Burberry Prorsum, Alexander McQueen - debuting today - and Twenty8Twelve's video foray is Roland Mouret. In conjunction with Fashionair.com, the designer will be streaming his Spring '10 runway show in Paris tomorrow, Oct. 7. "This is about taking the show and using it for what it should be - an amazing and immediate way for the consumer to see the collection," said Mouret.

In addition to viewing his show from a virtual front row seat, strategically placed cameras will allow us to experience the backstage action along with intimate interviews with Roland himself. While we eagerly await the action tomorrow, check out the site now to see what Roland had to say about his past Spring collection and why he dedicated it to his late father. Aw.

2010 Spring New York Trend Alert: Return of the One Piece

FabSugar — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 15:30:22 -0700

Perfect timing. After this Summer, I decided I need a new one piece. Though I am a skimpy bikini girl at heart, there are times when a one piece is in order. Be it a swanky pool party or chillin' poolside with the fam, the return of the one piece is upon us. Brian Reyes sent out delicate seersuckers, Derek Lam posh loungers, even sexy fashion beast Herve Leger turned down the volume with a printed baby-blue laser-cut suit. If anyone can prove one pieces can be equally as sexy as two, it's Michael Kors and his clear plastic cut-out noir creation. If only I could have that model's chiseled cheekbones, too . . .

2010 Spring New York Trend Alert: Biker Shorties

FabSugar — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 04:00:22 -0700

We've been advocating biker shorties for a while now. What can I say - I love the '90s. When I spied lots of them at New York Fashion Week my heart palpitated with excitement. Before you start judging, let me point out the way DKNY wore them: higher, subtle, colorful styles paired unexpectantly under tailored shorts and sleek jumpers. It just so happens, these are DKNY "Smoothies" - the brand's latest form of shapewear debuting in January. The 70-plus denier yarn combinations will come in seven matte finish colors and come in three styles: a bike short, high bike short, and capri style. Start your imagination engines.

Brian Reyes's Properly Designed Rubbers

FabSugar — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 07:50:22 -0700

You can even have style in the bedroom. With the (overwhelming) amount of New York Fashion Week sponsors and collaborations I witnessed last week, one was truly cool: Brian Reyes designed Proper Attire condoms. In the past, Yigal Azrouel designed them, too - these are still available for purchase. And look! Alexander Wang tried his hand at rubber design. I'm still lusting after Brian's Spring collection, but his Proper Attire condoms took a print from his '10 Resort collection. Still, clearly an original Reyes musing. The condoms are $6 for a three-pack (Fab tested, Fab approved).

New York Fashion Week is always a whirlwind, and it's important to stop and smell the fashion roses.

Fashion Week Comes to a Star-Studded Close in NYC

PopSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 15:30:00 -0700

Yesterday was the last day of Spring Fashion Week in NYC, and the celebrity attendants closed the spectacle in style. Tommy Hilfiger's show and afterparty brought out Penn Badgley and Naomi Watts, while the designer himself posed with a pretty-in-pink January Jones. Taylor Swift took a break from the ongoing Kanye drama to take in Tommy's presentation, as did Rosario Dawson and Emily Blunt. Amanda Bynes spent her afternoon at Ann Taylor, and Rachel Zoe was in an olive onesie to toast the latest Calvin Klein collection - though she had to cut out early to nurse her flu with her special drink. The madness is moving on to London now, so make sure to stay tuned to Fab UK for all the latest news!

To see more from the shows, just read more.

This Week's Fab Faves

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 14:30:22 -0700

Blam! Charlize Theron doesn't need much to shine, but her crisp cobalt Dior frock at the Burning Plain premiere sure turned up her ferosh factor. However, she wasn't the only celeb deserving of an honorable mention. Thanks to glorious NYFW and movie premieres, a flock of fashion fiends were looking sharp this week in a bevy of party dresses and unique separates. Want to check out my favorite 'fits from the week? Keep on to see Jessica Alba and Emmy Rossum in Narciso Rodriguez, Serena Williams in glitzy Gucci, Becki Newton in Marchesa, Megan Fox in Antonio Berardi, and more . . .

Fab Exclusive! Whitney and Olivia on Whitney's Fashion Week Debut

FabSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 13:30:22 -0700

We've been longtime supporters of Whitney Port's Whitney Eve clothing line. It may have started off on an unsure note, but it's always a good sign when you are able to show at the tents at New York Fashion Week.

Whitney's collection fused girlie and romantic and, to my relief, wasn't too '80s. There were definitely a couple flirty dresses and jackets I would rock, but Whitney needs to move past the pastels. While Olivia Palermo told me she thought the collection was "youthful" after the show, last night, at Divas Live, Whitney explained: "My inspiration was Alice in Wonderland goes to a cocktail party. I wanted something really fun, wearable, but that you could easily go from day to night in. Something you wear to the office and then can dress up with heels to go out. Bright colors."Looks like it's onward and upward for Whitney Eve.
