Good Morning Bloggers!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Christmas? Nope. Valentine’s Day? Not even close!
It’s that time of year where tall, thin models walk the streets of New York City in beautiful clothing. That’s right. You guessed it. It’s New York Fashion Week!
This is to be a Fashion Week of great meaning, for those who seek meaning in these sorts of things. Being the last Fashion Week to ever be held at Bryant Park may bring on a touch of nostalgia. Additionally, in case you hadn’t heard, the recession is over – or it’s about to be. Hence, this coming NY Fashion Week – a showcase of the collections that will mark the start of a new prosperous era this Fall/Winter 2010 – is aimed at actual consumption.
After a season of black and a season of beige, it is high time to get back to the business of selling the world beautiful clothes. I want to see color. Bright color, florals, etc. I, for one, want to see excess. I want to see big under the tent this season.
But will the designers deliver? Or will they send cautious things down the runway: sure-fire, uninspired dresses (AKA “basics”) in collections that will just sell?
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2010 began Thursday. Fashion Week has set the tone for the fall 2010 season in just the last five days.
Military-inspired fashions will be popular this upcoming fall. Awesome designers Brian Wolk and Claude Morais seemed to base their collection in silhouettes and men outerwear. Their military-inspired look was very beautiful! Don't you think? All of the models had their hair twisted into buns so high that they were almost touching their foreheads! It looked really cool!
This year, fur was seen all over the runway in the past several days. My favorite fur clothing shown at this year’s fashion week so far is definitely Thakoon. I just have to have that cream colored hood.
Some of my favorite designs are (so far) of Fall Fashion Week 2010. Prabal Gurung showed some really interesting and beautiful looks on the runway Saturday. One of my favorites is this block colored, dress. His runway was A-MA-ZING! I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next!
Bring it on, New York. I’m ready.
