Red and Pink Colorblocking, Outside Prabal Gurung
Colorblocking this season is all about breaking the rules. Pink and red don’t go together? Fuggedaboutit. This redhead pulls it off with panache outside the Prabal Gurung show, getting out of an equally colorful NYC yellow cab. And the pants are fabulously outrageous bell bottoms.
Lauren Santo Domingo at Prabal Gurung
Here’s another Voguette (and Moda Operandi founder) with great personal style: Lauren Santo Domingo. Love how she combines the pink blazer with pinkish beige silk pants for a cool tone-on-tone mix. Also note the boxy shape of the blazer, the new mannish-girl look for fall 2011.
Green Floral Maxi Dress, Outside Rag & Bone
For the whole summer, many of us have had one go-to print: stripes. Well now I’m sick of them (at least until Resort 2012). Dark florals are a nice way to usher in the fall, as with the green floral pattern on this belted maxi dress, seen outside the Rag & Bone show.
Modified Lumberjack Look, Outside Rag & Bone
I have an officemate who’s out to singlehandedly destroy the popularity of the lumberjack look in Williamsburg by introducing new trends – rave, retro ’80s, anything but Taavo Somer woodsman style. But lumberjack, like leopard, can still acceptable in moderation. This guy at the Rag & Bone show balanced the beard and plaid shirt with crisp cuffed jeans, Ray Bans, and a nice cognac leather bag and boots for a look that’s more urban than back woods. Williamsburg, are you listening?
Sarah Rutson at Jason Wu
Lane Crawford’s Sarah Rutson looked gorgeous at Jason Wu in a strapless pleated black dress. But since she is one of fashion’s bellwethers, it’s important to note what she’s wearing: a dress! Sarah Rutson was one of the first to wear all sorts of skinny pants and jeans with platform stilettos in past seasons. This past NY fashion week, however, she wore dresses and skirts almost every day.
Harlem's Fashion Row
On Friday, four designers presented collections at Rose Hall, home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, as part of Harlem’s Fashion Row Spring 2012 show. Above, a fringed rope dress by Ingram Talley’s Jakia Handy. (more…)
Leather Skirt and Top, Harlem's Fashion Row
Harlem’s Fashion Row presented the collections of four local designers on Friday, and a very fashionable crowd came to see the show. Above, Tiger Lily, a guest and New York DJ, in a leather top and skirt from H&M. The head scarf is also a good example of how a little bit of leopard can go a long way.
Delfina Blaquier, Outside Ralph Lauren
Handsome polo star Nacho Figueras came to yesterday’s Ralph Lauren show, but the fashion crowd was perhaps even more smitten with his gorgeous wife Delfina Blaquier, photographer, model and star of Ralph Lauren’s Romance campaign. She wore a beautiful embroidered jacket, taupe Hermes bag and open toe lace-up boots. More shots after the jump. (more…)
Marina Muñoz, Outside 3.1 Phillip Lim
Stylist and street style darling Marina Muñoz arrived at the 3.1 Phillip Lim show in an adorable Western outfit, complete with kerchief tied at her neck and a wide brimmed outback hat. She has a real talent for picking out hats, which always give her outfits a jolt of individuality in a sea of fashionable people. This hat is a classic and a reference to her native Argentina. Full shot after the jump. (more…)
Prints and Color, Outside Jeremy Scott
Here’s another example of a riotous mix of prints and color, seen on a woman outside the Jeremy Scott show. Believe it or not, this is not a jumpsuit but separates she skillfully coordinated. The top is vintage, the shorts Versace, the shoes Topshop. More detail shots, after the jump. (more…)
Amanda Hearst at Michael Kors
Amanda Hearst looked so sharp in Michael Kors at the designer’s show. The graphic red pants and black and white striped sweater are both au courant and totally wearable.
Barbara Walters, Arriving at the Oscar de la Renta Show
The beautiful Barbara Walters came to the Oscar de la Renta show in a brilliant red suit and red shoes, a popular color choice for fall.
Brown Jumpsuit, Outside Theyskens' Theory
Despite all the concern that there will never be another Halston, we may not have to worry. His aesthetic has been absorbed into the fashion zeitgeist so thoroughly that there are references everywhere, as with this ’70s chic brown jumpsuit on a guest outside the Theyskens’ Theory show.
