Virginie Mouzat at Carven
This past fashion week, we admired Virginie Mouzat, fashion editor of the Parisian daily Le Figaro, not just for her sense of style but her fearlessness on the page. In an age when so many fashion “reviews” tiptoe around anything negative in an established designer’s collection (for fear of alienating advertisers?), she completely panned Tom Ford’s collection in New York. Brava! Sometimes the truth is just black and white.

Polka Dot Dress at Ann Demeulemeester
Of all the current and runway trends to emerge from fashion week, one thing was clear: the tough biker looks of years past have given way to a new ladylike aesthetic. This black and white polka dot dress with white Prada bag, pearls and Hollywood movie star sunglasses is a great example of the tailored, pretty new look.
Postscript: She is Shala Monroque of ShalasRabbitHole.com.

Fishing Lure Dress, Outside Ann Demeulemeester
One word: j’adore! A subversively cute Giles Deacon fishing lure print dress outside Ann Demeulemeester, worn with Rick Owens boots and black sunglasses. Just the right mix of tough and twee.

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…)

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.

Here, a graphic print mini gets paired with a cropped black biker jacket, long white cardigan and black tights – the quintessential day-to-evening outfit for the Lower East Side.
