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.

Natalie Massenet, Outside Marc Jacobs

Fashion editor turned entrepreneur Natalie Massenet curates a beautiful collection of clothes for Net-a-Porter, but she also understands what women need out of their wardrobes. Here she’s assembled a great outfit that took her all the way from a 10am fashion show to an 8pm show, and presumably the Marc Jacobs party afterwards. A simple black dress with pumps and a metallic belt go from work to play. The daytime look, after the jump.  (more…)

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

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.

Emmanuelle Alt, Outside Rodarte

The epitome of grace under pressure, Emmanuelle Alt has really aced NY Fashion Week – not just with her composure but with her cool, casual wardrobe. Before she was named Editor in Chief of French Vogue, her look was super sporty. Now it has evolved to something more sophisticated but still entirely her own, like this combination of crisp blue button down, white jeans and Hermes bracelet watch. Simple but perfect.

Susie Lau in Prints and Color, Outside Donna Karan

Influence goes many ways when it comes to fashion. When critics like the NY Times‘ Cathy Horyn point out the profusion of prints and color in Spring 2012 collections, you can’t help but wonder if it started not on the runway, but with trendsetters like Style Bubble‘s Susie Lau, who wore wild print and color combinations long before they appeared in mainstream collections.

Wearable for the average Jane, 24/7? Maybe not. But color and print are a sort of visual daring, and the eye – and the camera – can’t help but be attracted to them.

Leather Shorts, Outside Carlos Miele

Every once in a while someone comes along who has that “It” quality. This young girl, a fashion blogger, drew crowds of street style photographers outside the Carlos Miele show. Hope we see more of her.  (more…)

Kim Kardashian at Lincoln Center

Kim Kardashian arrived at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center in a form-fitting beige dress and aquamarine statement necklace with her hair piled into a bun. She has said she idolized Elizabeth Taylor, and she really does remind me of La Liz in her twenties and thirties – the same sultry glamour and perfectly symmetrical beauty.
